ABC7 Holiday Food Drive

More than 730,000 people in the Bay Area go hungry each month. That's about 1 in 6 Bay Area residents, which includes families, children and seniors. For 21 years, ABC7 and Bay Area Food Banks have worked together to collect food and cash donations to help end hunger in our communities. Your help is needed now more than ever!

On Wednesday, December 12, 2012, starting at 5:30 a.m., ABC7 invites you to make a donation to your local food bank using these "7 WAYS TO GIVE."
