Over 1000 families received donated food distributed by the Fresno County Economic Opportunities Commission in Mendota on May 21, 2009. Average documented unemployment in the region is 36.5 percent, primarily due to lack of water and the subsequent layoffs in farm labor and other industries, according to a report by the Fresno County department of public health. Eighty percent of those receiving food indicate they have been affected by the drought. May 26, 2009.
