More than two dozen members and friends of the American Advertising Federation-Fort Worth volunteered Saturday morning at the Tarrant Area Food Bank, where they packed non-perishable foods for distribution.
According to the food bank, one in eight Tarrant-area residents received emergency food assistance from the service organization in the past three months.
“More people than ever need a little help these days, and the Tarrant Area Food Bank is an incredible organization serving our community as well as 12 neighboring counties,” said Jason Parker, president of AAF-Fort Worth. “The level of service it provides given its day-to-day challenges is amazing, and our members find it gratifying to volunteer their time to assist the organization in its fight against hunger.”
AAF, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2009, has a long history of civic contribution, supplying creative and advertising talent to a host of local organizations over the years, including an annual benefit concert to support Limbs for Life.
