The 10th annual holiday Loblaw food drive brought in a record amount in December.
More than 47,000 pounds of food and $117,000 in money was collected at Loblaw-affiliated grocery stores, including Atlantic Superstore.
Food banks say the donations help keep their shelves stocked during the winter months, which is a critical time of year.
Local donations will help support the Saint John East Food Bank, North End Food Bank, West Side Food Bank and Kennebecasis Valley Food Bank.
