Roadrunner Food Bank said it helps 70,000 people a week and the money will go a long way to support their mission, especially heading into the holiday season. “So it’s really important for us to kind of restock our inventory and prepare for what we’re expecting to be an elevated demand across New Mexico,” said Will Tapia, Roadrunner Food Bank.
The Food Depot in Santa Fe also received around $20,000 through the fundraiser.
