"If it wasn't for us people, otherwise, we'd be able to have a meal," Marcus Vernon, who drives Loaves and Fishes' trucks, among other things, said.This month, they're asking for the public's help stocking shelves. "We realize that people are in a spirit of giving," Tessa May, the executive director, said. "So, if we can take advantage of this opportunity now, we're able to prepare our agencies for January and February, where it might be slower."May said food insecurity is up 44% in Greenville County, and Helene was no help. "So immediately with our fresh food, stores at the various agencies, a lot was lost. It didn't affect the nonperishable items. However, those were the ones that were so highly in demand," she said.Right now, they say more than 45,000 men, women and children in the county are hungry. The good news: You can help."So, we have your church civic group business would like to host a food drive," May said. "Funds are appreciated to help us keep fuel in our trucks and food on the plates of people who need it."
