HOUSTON -- Local 2 held a food drive Friday, along with H-E-B, the Houston Food Bank and the End Hunger Network to help Hurricane Katrina victims.

The drive was held from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. and collected more than just food, officials said.

"We need paper goods, glasses, plates -- things like that. We also need diapers, baby formula. We need some non-perishable food items, like peanut butter and those things that won't spoil and don't need to be refrigerated," said Joan Smith, with the Houston Food Bank.

Items Needed:

Paper goods such as plates, cups, diapers and tissue
Cleaning supplies, such as bleach, Top Job, Mr. Clean
Bottled water (no glass containers)
Single serving snacks such as Pop-Tarts and cereal bars
Peanut butter
Heat and eat foods such as chili, stew, canned pasta with sauce and canned vegetables
Any other single serving foods that don't require refrigeration
MREs (Meals Ready To Eat)
Baby formula
Personal hygiene products

Even though the drop-off locations at the Local 2 studios and H-E-B stores were shut down Friday night, donations can still be taken to the Houston Food Bank, 3811 Eastex Freeway. For more information, call (713) 223-3700.

Local 2 thanks the thousands of people who donated items that filled numerous 18-wheelers, as well as all the volunteers who donated their time.
