(LaPorte, IN) - The number of people taking home a hot meal from the
Salvation Army in La Porte has increased.
Take home dinners are served from a truck to people in their vehicles
Monday through Friday.
Captain Chris Karlin says the number of meals has gone up from about
200 per night to close to 300.
However, he said demand from the food pantry has dropped recently
from about 80 households daily to 40 which was the average before the
coronavirus outbreak.
