Families received a week’s worth of groceries at an event hosted by hunger-relief company Goodr and the United Way of Metropolitan Dallas’ Southern Dallas Thrives initiative.
As she waited in line, Gloria LaBarba, a mother of two, said the free food was “alleviating a little stress” for families. She said that with the rising costs of goods, sometimes she doesn’t have enough money for groceries. “A $1.25 loaf of bread is a lot easier to purchase than a $3 loaf of bread,” she said. “As we’re coming off the heels of the pandemic, economic stability is a huge, huge issue that we’re seeing.”
Nearly 40 volunteers signed up to help give out food Saturday, Douglas said. Registration was simple, she said: Families said where they lived and how many people were in their household. At the front of the line, volunteers packed a week’s worth of groceries into cars in less than 20 seconds, while asking whether families wanted whole milk or oat milk.
“If you’re on this Earth, you don’t ask to be here and the least we can do is give you food,” she said.
