A group of people in Columbiana County wants to make sure everyone can eat right.  The group asked for health food donations like pasta and tuna.  They organized the food drive to help people in need, and at the same time, promote good nutrition and wellness.  Everything collected gets donated to Columbiana County Food Banks.

Jeff Martin, from the Healthy Food Drive, said, "This is National Service Day, and we are working with a group called Organizing for America.  Our local food banks are depleted down in this area because of hard economic times and we are just trying to help people out; get some food to the people who need it."

The group collected food at four different locations on Saturday, including Giant Eagles in Salem, Calcutta, and East Liverpool.
