SSM Health is continuing its work to address food insecurity in the St. Louis region and is partnering with St. Louis Area Foodbank to host a series of food distribution events for anyone in the community in need.
“Our commitment to the health and well-being of our neighbors goes beyond medical care, and we’re proud to partner with the St. Louis Area Foodbank to do what we can to address food insecurity in our region,” says Karen Bradshaw, SSM Health regional director of community health.
Team members from SSM Health will help distribute food beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday December 10 until supplies at SSM Health DePaul Hospital – St. Louis. The event is open to the public.
Food distribution events will also be held:
Tuesday, December 17, 9 am until supplies last at SSM Health St. Joseph Hospital – St. Charles, 300 1st Capitol Drive, Saint Charles, Missouri, 63301
Thursday, December 19, 9 am until supplies last SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital – St. Louis; 6420 Clayton Road, Richmond Heights, Missouri 63117.
This event is set up as a drive through distribution and volunteers will put food directly into vehicles. SSM asks that motorists have space in vehicles for food items and that they not leave vehicles during the distribution.
