Knoxville, TN (WOKI) After serving a record number of meals in a single day and housing hundreds Tuesday, Knox Area Rescue Ministries (KARM) is asking for your help to replenish their larder.
KARM representatives say they served more than 1,500 meals and housed 400 people Tuesday evening. They add that their outreach team also gave supplies to more than 120 people living in camps.
On top of using a record number of supplies, KARM representatives say that they cannot pick up donations due to icy roads, so they’re asking the public for help.
Specifically, KARM said they needed:
- Canned beans and vegetables
- Rice
- Pasta
- Meat
They also asked for hand warmers to give out to people living outside. Those who can make it safely to KARM to donate are asked to head to 418 North Broadway and ring the bell by the door.
