Wells Fargo Foundation Donates $20,000 to Fight Hunger in Elk Grove

Elk Grove, CA – Families and individuals in Elk Grove will not be going without food thanks, in part to a donation from Wells Fargo to Elk Grove Food Bank Services. A $20,000 grant to support food programs was announced earlier in July.

The contribution will make it possible for Elk Grove Food Bank Services to continue focusing on healthy food access for individuals and families in our local community and South County. “We know that resources can be scarce, and we find it critical to be proactive in providing additional access to food for those facing hunger. Our goal is to help those in need, but also to work with our community partners to find long-term solutions,” said Marie Jachino, Executive Director.
