Those who are impacting hunger in the Pella area were included as part of the KNIA/KRLS Food Drive Radiothon this past Tuesday.

Pella Community Food Shelf Director Melissa Zula says the awareness raised about issues related to food insecurity can mean so much, whether it’s donations to their organization or to allowing people to better understand what help is available to them when times are tough.

Volunteer Coordinator Joy Steiner says one of the best ways to help in the community is to work at the Pella Food Shelf with various needs throughout the week or during their distribution times on Tuesdays.
