Feed the Need concert raises over $175,000 for Flathead Food Bank

KALISPELL — The fourth annual Feed the Need benefit concert drew more than 1,000 people to the Wachholz College Center on Wednesday night, raising over $175,000 for the Flathead Food Bank.

Food banks have been hit hard, making the timing of the concert particularly important.

"The cost of living, the cost of food as the valley grows, we're seeing over 2,000 visits to our pantry every month. It comes at a very serendipitous time, and it's much needed," said Flathead Food Bank Executive Director Chris Sidmore.
