Looking to support the Food Bank of Delaware’s COVID-19 relief efforts, DART recently held Stuff the Bus events throughout Delaware. DART employees volunteered in Rehoboth, Dover, Stanton, Newark and Wilmington. The program was accepting nonperishable donations to help Delawareans in need of food assistance.

DART announced May 5 the efforts collected 9,621 pounds of food. For more information on donating food, contact the Food Bank at 302-292-1305 or go to FBD.org.
