Community groups step up to provide aid after Walmart closures.
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.
