“Many people throughout this pandemic have lost their jobs, and have no way to pay their rent let alone have anything to eat, so we decided to reach out into our community and with our community partners, Bowes imaging and MRI associates to feed the community here with a nice hot meal this Easter Sunday, along with Tasty Home Cooking,” said Chief Operating Officer for Sarasota Medical Center, Mark McKinley. 

Drivers were each given two to three meals for the family.

SMC, Bowes Imaging, and MRI associates handed out meals up until they were completely out.
