Nov. 17/Chicago/PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --  The nation's largest hunger relief organization, Feeding America, is launching a fleet of mobile pantries and expanding upon other hunger relief programs, thanks to a $5 million donation from the Idol Gives Back Foundation.

Ten mobile pantry trucks are being delivered to service food banks across the country. They will supply nutritious food to people at risk of hunger who live in communities where fresh food is limited, providing access to nutritious food in both urban and rural "food deserts." These trucks are expected to distribute more than 8 million pounds of food annually.
