The Dauphin Food Bank is preparing for a very busy two days to assure that hundreds of families in need have food to eat and that's not it.
On Wednesday, 238 applicants will be getting hampers full of food, treats, and toys for the kids. Robin Gambler with the Food Bank says she is very pleased to be able to help those in need.
"It's a really good feeling that we're going to be able to help out so many families," said Gambler. "146 of those families were adopted and those that weren't adopted out are going to have a great Christmas as well."
If you missed out on applying but you and your family are still in need, the Food Bank will be hosting an intake on Thursday from 5 to 7 at Parkland Crossing.
"We will have very large hampers for the folks that come in," said Gambler. "It's going to be larger than our normal hampers."
