Food Box Distribution
DELIVERY ONLY
June 2, 2020 starting @ 2pm

3 groups will be delivering to homes – please continue to practice social distancing:

• Housing areas along mainroad White Mountain Dr.
• Homes along HWY 70
• Housing areas in Mescalero and up Head Springs to 8 Canyon

Same as last food delivery, stand outside your home so Tribal vehicles can VISIBLY see you in order for them to give you a box.

Food box items contain mask(s), hand sanitizer, water, and watermelon. Since there are limited boxes, DELIVERY WILL OPERATE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.

Last week’s food delivery was a success and we aim for this delivery to be a success also- thank you for your understanding!
