The Californer/10083411

SAN DIEGO - Californer -- On Thursday, July 2nd, the Rock Church, San Marcos campus in collaboration with the Rock's Provision Group, is hosting a community food, diaper and supplies distribution to help connect resources with those that have found themselves in an unexpected place of need during the COVID-19 crisis. The event is free and open to the community.

According to the San Diego Food Bank, out of San Diego County's 3.2 million residents, 450,000 people face food insecurity every day. With the onset of COVID-19, there is even more of a crisis. Not all San Diegians have access to obtain groceries at local organizations like the San Diego Food Bank. In understanding how this crisis impacts the community,  providing alternate means to obtain food and other grocery necessities is a critical need for San Diegians.
