Helix Helps Virtual Food Drive Provides Over 30,000 Meals

Press release from Helix Water District:

Jul 10, 2020

Thank you to the Helix employees, board members and customers who donated over $6,000 to our virtual food drive in partnership with the San Diego Food Bank, which will provide 30,000 meals to individuals and families in need.

The virtual food drive was hosted by our employee volunteer program, Helix Helps, which was looking for a way to help those in our community impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. By hosting and donating to a virtual food drive, we were able to assist those in our community while still practicing social distancing and helping everyone stay healthy.

Although our virtual food drive campaign has ended, the need for emergency food assistance continues. You can donate directly to the San Diego Food Bank at https://sandiegofoodbank.org/. They distribute food at more than 200 locations countywide, ensuring those in need have access to food during this difficult time.

Under the Helix Helps program, Helix employees, families and friends volunteer their time to help support the communities the district serves. Follow us on Twitter to learn about upcoming Helix Helps efforts.

Thank you for your generous support of the community in this time of need.
