LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - A local realtor is encouraging others to give back.

Steve Adams, a realtor at Bob Hayes Realty, has pledged $1000 to Dare to Care Food Bank and challenged other realtors to do the same.

Adams said he was inspired to help out after seeing long lines at the food bank sponsored by his church in Bullitt County.

"Hunger's real. There's just a lot of people that are in extenuating circumstances and bad things happen to good people," said Adams.

Dare to Care said every dollar donated helps to provide four meals.

Adams said other realtors don't have to match his donation, just give what they can.
