Food bank gets $100,000 from Ford fund

The Oregon Food Bank, based in Portland, recently announced a $100,000 grant from the Ford Motor Company Fund as part of the Ford Focus on Child Hunger campaign.

The donation is one of six grants to food banks across the Pacific Northwest intended to address the growing issue of childhood hunger in this country.

“There is nothing more heart-wrenching than a child going hungry,” said Bess Wills, dealer at Gresham Ford. “We are thankful that Ford Motor Company Fund is taking steps to address this growing problem and your local Ford store is proud to support this effort.”
