When they wound up with a surplus, they searched for a way to distribute their food.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Theresa Sauls, Corporate Community Relations for CenterPoint, said, \u201cWe had this food and didn\u2019t want it to be wasted, so we reached out to The Salvation Army. We are so grateful for what y\u2019all are doing.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CenterPoint was able to donate 20 cases each of apples, bananas, and oranges. This fresh fruit will be distributed on The Salvation Army canteens. Captain Trey Jones, Incident Commander of The Salvation Army\u2019s Hurricane Laura Response in Lake Charles responded, \u201cWith produce being hard to come by and many people having no method of refrigeration, this fruit will be such a blessing.
