(AP) -- The Extreme Makeover Home Edition team needs your help to make their food drive a success.
The TV show's crew is back in Horry County to build a new home for a family in need, and along with that, they're collecting 100 tons of food to restock local food pantries.
Collection boxes are set up at 70 locations around the county, including every Wal-Mart store.
But along with the food, the United Way also needs volunteers to help collect the food and distribute it to the agencies. "We'll take any kind of volunteer. We have actually a softball team from Coastal Carolina University that's willing to volunteer and help and they're going to go to the Wal-Marts. Any age can help with this food drive," said Julie Kopnicky, United Way of Horry County.
If you'd like to volunteer for the food drive, call the United Way office or their volunteer coordinator at 843-340-5497.
