Food will be distributed to families affected by COVID-19 on July 2

Memphis Light, Gas and Water will again partner with the Mid-South Food Bank to help families who continue to be affected by COVID-19 by offering a Mobile Food Pantry on July 2 at its Joyce Blackmon Training Center at 4949 Raleigh-LaGrange Rd. MLGW is proud to continue working in the community with the Food Bank, whose mission is to change lives by eliminating hunger in the Mid-South. By providing food for Shelby County families, children and seniors, we help solve one of the biggest struggles they face: getting enough nutritious food to eat to live a healthy life especially during the coronavirus pandemic.
