Find Out When The Mobile Food Bank Will Be In Flint
The Food Bank of Eastern Michigan has set up the Mobile Food Pantry with the goal of helping families in Flint deal with the Flint Water Crisis.
Safe drinking water is obviously the most important thing to help Flint, but many people don't know that there are many types of foods that can help someone exposed to lead.
The Food Bank has a list of foods that help out, most all of them focus on increasing Calcium, Iron and Vitamin C intake. Those foods will be featured in the mobile food pantry as it makes stops in Flint.
The stops start today, and run through June, when more stops will be announced. See the complete schedule below, and get more information from the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan here.
