Candy Lievsay says when her 6th grade class learned the closest branch was in Lawton, they knew they had to get involved.

"We have many people right here in Broken Arrow that don't have enough to eat: many elderly, many children, many people out of work, looking for work," for Candy Lievsay, teacher.

"We are trying to make not just a little difference, but a huge difference in the hunger problem right in our own back yard."

The food drive will benefit Broken Arrow Neighbors food bank.
