The City of Monona, in collaboration with the Monona Fire Department and the Monona East Side Business Alliance has announced a food drive to benefit St. Stephen’s Food Pantry in Monona.
Monona Mayor Mary O’Connor who organized the drive along with Alder Kathy Thomas, reports that “As COVID 19 continues to impact our local economy we are seeing increasing numbers of local residents who do not have enough to eat. Local food pantries are having difficulty meeting the demand for supplies to meet those needs. I am happy that the city, MESBA and the Monona Fire Department are working together to help fill the gap for one of them.”
