September is Hunger Action Month but the St. Louis Area Foodbank is devoted to food security 365 days a year. The Foodbank in Bridgeton is the destination for this week's Roaming St. Louis segment.
KMOX host Scott Jagow sits down with the Foodbank's CEO Meredith Knopp. They discuss the organization's mission and programs, the 9/11 Day of Service, and Knopp's own military service to her country. Listen below the photos.
