FORT WAYNE, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) - Yesterday, it was the Lugar Community Center. Today it was the new Walmart Foundation, which is helping to stock the shelves at the Community Harvest Food Bank.

This morning, city and state leaders joined Walmart officials at the Community Harvest Food Bank to celebrate the new program that will provide 90 million pounds of food around the country every year.

Fort Wayne's Community Harvest Food Bank is one of six that will receive the food.

But the food bank still needs your donations this holiday season.

So far Walmart has donated 64 thousand pounds of food to the food bank.
