Columbus Police Department Community Liaison Glenda Richardson, who headed the initiative, said about 200 boxes and bags of food were collected to distribute to those in need, with any leftovers set to go to Helping Hands. “Industries, … a bunch of schools and churches (all donated items),” Richardson told The Dispatch. “It has been really a good event.” Emma McRae/Dispatch Staff
