San Antonio – The Salvation Army announced Wednesday that it will host a public food drive on Thursday outside of the Boys and Girls Club located at 615 Peacock Avenue in San Antonio.

The Salvation Army’s San Antonio Metropolitan Command said it was forced to cancel last week’s scheduled food distribution due to the lack of available food during Hurricane Hanna.
