Each vehicle will receive one 40-pound box chicken products. This distribution is free to the public. No ID or proof of residency is required.

  • Advance slowly to the front of the building in your vehicle.
  • Stay inside your vehicle.
  • Keep your window up.
  • Pop your trunk

The RVRFB staff will load the items in your trunk or truck bed, but due to social distancing guidelines, they will not load any items inside the main compartment of your vehicle, as a way to avoid contact. Please have enough room in your trunk or truck bed for your donation.  

Thursday’s donation comes weeks after Tyson Foods donated 73,000 pounds of product to the RVRFB, which was distributed to the public in Fort Smith on April 1.
