ROGERS, Ark. – Representative Steve Womack (AR-3) today announced donations from his campaign totaling $30,000 to be divided among six food banks across Arkansas’s Third District.

Our food banks are actively ensuring meals and other necessities are reaching the vulnerable. These organizations reflect the giving spirit of our state, and supporting their vital work is the right thing to do. During this crisis, I’m proud to stand with my supporters in making additional resources available to those serving our neighbors facing increased hardship. We’ve always been driven by the needs of our community, and these donations reflect that shared purpose. While we didn’t choose this fight, we will defeat it together.”
