MOUNT VERNON, Wash. — Skagit County food banks are working on ways to distribute food safely while preventing the spread of the coronavirus.
Starting Monday, March 23, The Helping Hands Solution Center in Sedro-Woolley will distribute pre-packed food boxes in the parking lot of the Food Pavilion in Crossroads Square.
The Skagit Valley Herald reports the nonprofit is also adopting a drive-through model where people can pull up and open their trunk to be loaded by volunteers.
This new distribution model will also apply to Helping Hands’ partners in Marblemount and Anacortes.
