COLUMBIA — Several dozen volunteers, ranging from ages 18 to 90, worked at a furious pace to sort through many boxes of frozen food at the Food Bank for Central & Northeast Missouri on Thursday. Despite their efforts, Food Bank needs more volunteers to repackage the large shipments it received this week for families, communications director Scott Gordon said.
