With clean hands, open hearts and doors, The Columbia Food Bank will continue to operate normally, as long as it is safe to do so for both our clients and volunteers.

In order to safeguard and promote the health of all involved, we are asking that for the following:

·        Only one (1) family member come to the food bank to place the food request (or if a person with a three (3) month certification, call as usual on Monday between 9:30am and 11:15am)

·        No one under the age of 18 should be brought to the food bank.  If at all possible, children should stay at home with supervision.  This is key to prevent overcrowding and enabling us to provide the recommended “social distancing” to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

We apologize for any inconvenience that these precautions may cause.  We seek only to continue to serve the community safely.  With this in mind, we hope for everyone’s good health, but if you feel sick:

  Fever     -   Cough -   Shortness of breath

Then:

·        Stay home

·        Call your doctor

·        Follow your doctor’s instructions

Please take care and be well…We keep all of you in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers – always.
