CORVALLIS, OR (KPTV) – An Oregon State basketball coach is giving back to health care workers on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Donned in gloves and a mask, the Oregon State men’s head basketball coach Wayne Tinkle, along with his wife and son, went out on Wednesday to grab food donations in Corvallis. They are joining up with an organization called Feed the Fearless, helping to bring meals to people in need during the pandemic.
“They've raised so much money, they've taken care of a lot of the hospitals in the Portland and Vancouver area, and they had some extra, so … they wondered if we would be willing to reach out and do the same here to help out good Sam and one of the nursing homes, so they selected some local restaurants and mean a lot to our community," Tinkle said.
