The Padron Elementary School parking lot in north Austin became a drive-thru Wednesday morning.
The Central Texas Food Bank repurposed the school’s lot to go ahead with a re-imagining of its mobile food pantry to deliver “disaster relief” boxes of food to families in need.
“This is our mobile food pantry distribution. We’ve kind of changed our model a little bit for social distancing purposes so we’re doing it as a drive-thru,” said Distribution Program Specialist Anchal Saxena. “Normally we have everything laid out on a table, where people come up, they get to choose what they want to get, put it in there own box then go home.
