Donor relevance
Why this matters
A substantially larger hunger-relief facility can increase food handling, volunteer participation and regional distribution capacity. This is a durable operational investment rather than a one-time food drive.
Attribution
Who reported or established this
Tallahassee Democrat reporter Kyla A. Sanford reported the facility's unveiling and attributed the expected capacity gains to Second Harvest leadership.
