Food bank, police team up for a fundraiser

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - The New Hampshire Food Bank and the Concord Police Department are teaming up for a fundraiser to benefit the food pantry.

They will be challenging New Hampshire residents Saturday to fill the trunk of a police cruiser with non-perishable food items at a Market Basket grocery store in Concord. A collection box will also be at the Concord Police Department headquarters.

The fundraiser supports the food bank’s sixth annual Nothing Campaign, which raises awareness for the 9 percent of New Hampshire residents who are “food insecure,” meaning they do not know where their next meal will come from.
