1992 “Let’s Bag Hunger
Food Drive Surpasses Goal
First Interstate Bank Branches Throughout Oregon
Collect Over 125,000 Pounds o f Food and $15,000
Thanks to the ongoing support o f
First Interstate Bank o f Oregon and the
Oregon Newspaper Publishers Asso-
ciation, Oregonians responded gener
ously to the 1992 "L e t’ s Bag Hunger’
statewide food drive, held M ay 4th-
22nd. T his year, the event raised
125,690pounds o f food and $ 15,000to
benefit Oregon Food Bank network
agencies.
For the seventh year in a row ,
Oregonians fille d grocery bags w ith
nonperishable food items and brought
them to their nearest First Interstate
Bank branch.
This year, a record
number o f newspaper publishers-75%
o f the state’ s total newspaper circula
tion-inserted over h alf a m illio n printed
grocery bags in their publications to
promote the drive. W illam ette Indus
tries, Georgia-Pacific and Cupples Pa
per Bag Co. donated $11,000 w orth o f
printed bags fo r distribution. Over
200 First Interstate Bank branches and
o ffic e s served as c o lle c tio n sites
throughout Oregon.
The drive surpassed its goal o f
125,000 pounds o f food, and cash do
nations increased by 35% over last
year. A ll food raised during the three-
week drive remained in the com m uni
ties where donations were made. A ll
cash donations were divided equally
between the community ’ s regional food
bank and Oregon Food Bank, the state
wide coordinating agency.
“ The support o f newspaper pub
lisher this year was excellent and First
Interstate Bank employees really helped
get the word out,” said OFB Special
EventscoordinatorW ayneAuse. “ But
the credit really goes to thousands o f
Oregonians who cam through by do
nating a variety o f high-quality, n u tri
tious food that w ill benefit many fa m i
lies and children this summer.”
