Vance County Manager C. Renee Perry announced Tuesday afternoon that the food distribution scheduled for Friday has been cancelled.
In an email, Perry said, “While our employees and community members have contributed generously, the current volume does not allow for a large-scale distribution event.”
Donations are still welcomed and will be accepted through Thursday at 5 p.m., Perry stated, adding that the county will partner with the Henderson-Vance Recreation and Parks Department and will give all food donations to the HVRPD holiday food drive.
“We appreciate the community’s support and understanding as we work collaboratively to ensure families receive assistance during the holiday season,” Perry said.
