Governor Laura Kelly announced that she will be hosting food drives at the remaining seven stops on her statewide 'The People's Budget' listening tour.
In partnership with the Kansas Food Bank and Harvesters – The Community Food Network, Governor Kelly is encouraging Kansans to bring non-perishable, non-glass food items to give back to local communities.
"As the federal government shutdown continues to drag on, Kansans who are furloughed, and especially those who receive SNAP and WIC benefits, are caught in the crossfire,"
Governor Kelly said, urging Kansans to donate food items and support food banks struggling to meet already high demands.
