Caraway, AR – JonesboroRightNow.com – The rescheduled date for the Food Bank of Northeast Arkansas’s USDA food distribution in Caraway has been set.

The distribution, which will be at the Caraway Housing Authority, located at 325 Missouri St., will take place Wednesday, Feb. 18 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., or until food runs out.

The distribution was originally set for Jan. 28 but was rescheduled due to wintry conditions. The Food Bank of NEA also had a food distribution scheduled for Jonesboro on that same day, but it too was rescheduled due to weather. That distribution took place on Jan. 29.

To receive food, attendees must live in the county where the distribution is taking place and meet income guidelines based on their household size. Eligible households can only receive food once per month, according to the Food Bank of NEA.
