As Keller Williams Realty of Acadiana’s bi-annual food drive was wrapping up, John sat down with Ben Broussard of Catholic Charities of Acadiana to talk about the impact of the drive and the organization behind it. The goal: collect and donate 20,000 pounds of food to FoodNet Food Bank — the exact amount needed to serve the people FoodNet supports each month.
Ben walks through the range of services Catholic Charities provides across the Acadiana area and how the community can get involved, whether through a one-time donation or becoming a monthly supporter.
