TL;DR Summary

My Block, My Hood, My City and Top Box Foods gave out 1,000 boxes filled with fresh fruits and vegetables to the South Side community in Chicago as a temporary solution for an area that has now become even more of a food desert with the exit of Walmart. Alderman Ronnie Mosley is hopeful community involvement will help determine the future of the four now-vacant sites. Community members can expect to see this kind of giveaway once a month, on top of their weekly Thursday food drives.
