Friday morning, volunteers in Santa Maria helped make a holiday dinner possible for hundreds of people in need. “Today we are actually giving away some turkeys and chickens, some fresh produce, some really good canned food and staple items that can get people some healthy meals during this season,” said Laurel Alcantar, senior development manager for the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County. Volunteers and staff with the Foodbank hosted its second holiday food distribution event of the winter season Friday, just weeks after running out of supplies during their drive-thru distribution that took place ahead of Thanksgiving.
