(Laredo, Tx)-The United ISD Child Nutrition Department donated 1,000 cases (40,000 pounds) of USDA ground meat to the South Texas Food Bank. This ground meat was expected to be used during the regular school year.
Due to the pandemic, and the decreased number of meals currently being prepared compared to the regular school year has resulted in an excess of ground meat. In order to help the Laredo community, the Child Nutrition Department has opted to donate the food to the South Texas Food Bank. The transfer of the ground meat took place on Tuesday November 24, 2020. The South Texas Food Bank will be in charge of distributing the ground meat to the community. For further questions, please contact the South Texas Food Bank.
