Project Healthy Community runs a mobile food distribution that helps over 400 families supplement their food budget on(typically) the fourth Thursday of every month. November's distribution will occur on the fourth Wednesday of the month due to Thanksgiving taking place on the fourth Thursday. The distribution will take place outside at the Northwest Activities Center (18100 Meyers Rd, Detroit, MI 48235). When colder weather comes in the pantry is moved to an indoor location.
Volunteers assist in packaging and distributing food to the over 400 families that attend each month. Food distribution typically takes place outside, therefore volunteers are asked to dress for the weather, including rain.
