abc13 KTRK Eyewitness News HoustonDecember's Season of Celebrations & Sharing ~ SHARE YOUR HOLIDAYS FOOD DRIVE

Throughout the entire Houston area today the annual SHARE YOUR HOLIDAYS FOOD DRIVE is taking place.  There are drop-off locations throughout the greater Houston area where you can simply drive up and drop off your canned goods.

Live Channel 13 coverage is going on all day for the event.  The station does a great job of highlighting some wonderful, heartwarming stories of people within our own communities.  It is also great to see all of the volunteers that have come out to work at the various locations.

The enthusiasm for this event is fun to watch.  People come out in droves even during this cold snap to give unselfishly for such a needy cause.  There is still time today to get on over to a site and donate.

We are so fortunate in this community to have a local station like this that sees the need for these type of events.  They do a fantastic job with the live coverage so people see it all day long and they are then encouraged to get out there and give.  Channel 13 is known for their giving spirit.

Hi Paula. With the support of the local TV and News station, your Food Drive should be a huge success. This time of the year is great when people think of others in need for basic items like food.

Lets hope the people who need it can be satisfied this holiday season.  I think sometimes the gift of food is just as valuable as gifts but then again food is a gift isn't it..
