Summary
The community outreach committee said the district will partner with board offices and Mid-South Food Bank to host 2–3 mobile food distributions during spring break (week of March 9), with site selection considering Cordova and North Memphis.
At the Community Outreach and Engagement committee, staff provided an update on planned mobile food distributions for District 7 during spring break, aiming for two to three locations in the week of March 9. The family and community engagement department said it will coordinate with the board office and the Mid-South Food Bank to select sites, with staff explicitly looking at Cordova and North Memphis.
Committee members asked how sites are chosen and whether the scheduling uses data. Staff said the program aims to spread drives across the district, coordinate logistics with the Mid-South Food Bank, check for other simultaneous distributions and ensure traffic conditions will support a successful event. The committee did not finalize locations and said more details would be provided to board offices once logistics are confirmed.
The committee adjourned the item after the update; staff said they will refine site selection and publicize details when plans are finalized.
