ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - If you live anywhere in St. Louis County it will be difficult to not have a food driving happening near you on Saturday. That's because St. Louis Area Foodbank is working with mayors from 23 municipalities to hold a food drive to help feed more children, families, and seniors in their communities.
Clayton Mayor Michelle Harris is spearheading the one-day event that comes as unemployment numbers remain near Great Depression levels and people are beginning to feel the pinch.

They are looking for donations of food, cleaning supplies and personal care items. You can go to any drop-off location between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Saturday. Participants are asked to put the donations in their trunk of their vehicle. Once they get to the collection points, volunteers will grab the donations with no contact and will maintain a safe distance. Arrangements will also be available for those who do not have automobiles.
Here's a full list of where food drives are happening:
