Orange County officials are expected to vote to provide $3 million in additional federal funding toward local food banks at a meeting on Oct. 20.

In May, an original provision of $3 million was given and divided between the two largest food banks in the California county: Orange County Food Bank, run by Community Action Partnership, and Second Harvest Food Bank.
