A total of just more than 20,000 pounds of nonperishable food was collected on Saturday, down about 8,000 pounds from the year prior.
Food collected through the drive is distributed to three area food pantries: Niles Salvation Army, Christian Service Center and First Presbyterian Church.
Scott Lolmaugh, volunteer coordinator at the Niles Salvation Army, said his organization received 6,380 pounds from the drive, down 3,000 pounds from a year ago.
“It’s a significant amount less,” he said.
