OGDEN — “Shopping” for groceries at the Catholic Community Services Joyce Hansen Hall Food Bank will be more pleasant for low-income clients after shelving is installed by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Officials recently announced approval from Smith’s Food and Drug Community Affairs to provide the shelving and a promise from members of the LDS Ogden, Utah, stake to provide the labor to install it.

“I told (CCS of Northern Utah Director Marcy Valdez) if there were any costs involved, we would love to pay for that,” said Scott Handy, chairman of the Ogden stake special projects committee. “We will go down and set up the shopping experience.”
