OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. – Throughout the coronavirus pandemic, there has been a massive need for food assistance in Central Florida.
Food drives are regularly giving away tens of thousands of pounds of food in a day, including one Wednesday in Orange City, where cars lined up for miles.It was a similar scene in Osceola County, where Advance Senior Center and Second Harvest Food Bank hosted a drive-thru food pantry.
Since mid-March, Second Harvest Food Bank has provided 22 million meals and a new study shows they are seeing nearly 50% more people in Central Florida who are hungry.Waiting doesn’t bother Millie Vasquez.
