SOUTH DAKOTA(WNAX)- A number of factors are coming together to increase the demand for food.

Megan Kjose with Feeding South Dakota says their numbers are higher now than during the pandemic.

Kjose says while people are in a giving mood, their needs rise after the holidays.

Kjose says they will have some matching grants available.

Feeding South Dakota has warehouses in Sioux Falls, Pierre and Rapid City to serve the needs of outlying agencies.
