In 2015,William (9) with the help of his brother Alexander (5) decided it was time to ramp things up and expand to 10 stores. With over 150 volunteers the Food Drive Kids put together a plan to have kids and their parents stand outside of those 10 grocery stores for one day in April and ask people to buy food from their list and donate it on their way out. They received a grand from the National Peanut Board and Youth Service America to get things rolling, and with the donation of a 24 foot Penske truck they collected 9,000 pounds of food and donated $11,000 to the Interfaith Food Shuttle’s Backpack buddies program.
