ST. LOUIS – A partnership with the food truck association and AT&T provided hundreds of meals to the victims of the May 16 tornado.
“The biggest issue right now is getting hot meals out to people who can’t make it out,” Chris Franzen with AT&T said.
Franzen said AT&T partnered with three food trucks to deliver hot meals to three different neighborhoods in north St. Louis.
“For me, this hit home; this is my home, this is my community. So AT&T, yes, is a very large company, but for me personally it is more than that. It is getting out in the community and bringing visibility to this issue,” Franzen said.
Eric Smith volunteers with No Sauce BBQ, a group that has been out in north St. Louis since the first day after the storms to help anyone in need.
“This is like a small band-aid to what is going on, literally. There are people that can’t even get here. So we’ve been riding around because there are people whose cars are messed up, people who can’t even go to work,” Smith said.
