CINCINNATI (FOX19) - A group of local and national group is conducting a two-pronged "Drive to End Hunger" among seniors this weekend.
Part of the drive is that they are asking people to bring donations of peanut butter to four specific Walgreen's stores this weekend, in Delhi, West Price Hill, Norwood, and Anderson Township. They are looking for both regular and low-sodium peanut butter.
For those who can't make it to those stores, or who want to help more, they are asking for $24 donations, in honor of NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon's #24 "Drive to End Hunger" Chevrolet.
The sponsors say nearly 9 million older Americans face the risk of hunger each day, and for the last 20 years Wesley Community Services has helped older adults in Cincinnati remain at home with Meals-On-Wheels, Specialized Transportation, and Home Care and Personal Care Services.
Peanut butter is one of the most concentrated sources of protein and calories,
