Binghampton Food Pantry Marks One Millionth Meal Distributed

Organizers in Memphis say the event builds on years of grassroots effort to bring neighbors together and support local causes.

"This is something our community has been asking for, and we're glad to finally see it come together," said Chris Anderson, nonprofit director in Memphis.

Last year's turnout topped 3297 attendees, and organizers say they are hoping to top that number this time with an expanded lineup of activities for families.
