The ongoing need to help with food insecurity continues at the Bountiful Community Food Pantry. Nearly 1 in 7 Utahns go to bed hungry each night.

On our Davis Beat podcast this week (https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/davisjournal/episodes/Feed-Utah-Food-Drive-and-The-Bountiful-Food-Pantry-e2fons1) we speak with Rebekah Anderson, executive director of the Bountiful Community Food Pantry, about the programs used to help provide food for hungry families, and the reasons why the need is ever increasing. Join her and host Tom Haraldsen for this look at the pantry today, and the plans it has for the future.

February is also part of the Scouting for Food Drive statewide, where Scouts collect food for local pantries. Non-perishable food can be dropped off at any Red Hanger Cleaners, Arctic Circle or Young Automotive Group location through Feb. 29.
