St. Vincent de Paul passes out free food to Treasure Valley restaurant workers

BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — Many restaurant workers throughout the Treasure Valley have struggled during the pandemic.

Fewer customers have led to fewer hours and fewer tips.

Today, St. Vincent de Paul trucks lined up along 8th street in downtown Boise Wednesday to pass out food relief boxes to restaurant workers.

The goal is to spread some much-needed hope and cheer this holiday season.
