On this MLK day, a couple of Dallas organizations in South Dallas partnered to address an issue Dr. King spoke of often. A new community cold food storage is now operating in an unlikely place, and it will more than quadruple the organizations’ food distribution efforts.
“This is the cold storage that we’ve been able to get up and running in the last two months,” Tumminia said. “Now because of the cold storage, we don’t have to worry about this fruit going bad today. So, we’re able to give that out on Tuesday, on Wednesday, on Thursday. We can set up a new system where we’re able to give out more food.”
Joseph Kim is assistant director a 4DWN. He skates and participates in food distribution weekly. He looks forward to serving more of the community with the cold food storage. Already, they’re calculating just how many more people will have food because of this one facility. “It’s going to expand our capacity, I’m not kidding, tenfold,” said Tumminia. “And we can also run many different programs from out of this cold storage unit.”“It’s not just that everybody needs food,” she said. “But everybody needs choices. Everybody needs good food.”
