"Making sure our neighbors have continued access to healthy meals goes well beyond the table," said Derrick Chubbs, president and CEO at Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida. "Proper nutrition helps reduce the risk of some diseases while fueling our minds and bodies to manage daily activities, which is especially important for growing children. As summer approaches, this funding from Duke means our partners can better bridge a meal gap many families face when school is out."
