Food Bank Preps for Hurricane Michael - WMFE
Hurricane Michael is striking Florida’s panhandle with Category Four strength. The Second Harvest of Central Florida is prepping nearly 6,000 boxes to send in aid impacted areas.
Vice President of Development Gregg Higgerson stood in the Costco-sized food bank with towering stacks of canned food, refrigerators, and beeping forklifts. He said there’s one answer to getting nearly 6,000 boxes of food to the right place after a disaster,“coordination is king when these things happen.” The food bank partners with local emergency operation centers for cell tower tracking to determine where the most people have congregated after a natural disaster.
