Last Saturday, the Salvation Army here in Batavia held a food giveway. Pictured above is Captain Bob of Salvation Army taking a quick break with Paul Ohlson of Care-A-Van Ministries. There was approximately over 450 families with over 1,500 family members that benefited from the food that was donated by Food Link. Food was also distributed to other local agencies and organizations to have on hand to help people.
These young gentlemen came out to volunteer for the day. Cornell Cooperative Extension was on hand to offer their services as well as the Fidelis Insurance company who helped people without insurance fill out applicatons to see if they could be eligible for benefits.
It was a great day to see all the different agencies coming together to help others.
Captain Bob and his wife Patty are doing an awesome job of serving at the local office.
