This week, red and white hangers will be placed on doors across the state asking Utahns to participate in the Feed Utah drive.

SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Food Bank is gearing up for the biggest locally driven food drive of the year and is asking Utahns to participate in a massive collection effort called "Feed Utah" on Saturday.

This week, red and white hangers will be placed on doors across the state asking Utahns to participate. The hangers instruct residents to leave a bag of nonperishable food outside of their door before 9 a.m. Saturday, later to be picked up by local volunteers and church organizations. Donated items should also be commercially packaged and nutritious.

"Think about your children's classroom with maybe 25 students, and the idea that potentially three of them will struggle with hunger throughout the week. And it's unacceptable," said Gov. Spencer Cox. "It is rewarding to see so many partners working alongside us to fight hunger statewide," said Utah Food Bank President Ginette Bott in a statement. "We are still distributing record-setting amounts of food as the need for assistance remains high thanks to rising food costs and otherpressures. Your support is needed now just as much as during the height of the pandemic."
