Title: food drive for Bennington County
Post by: Carolyn Branagan on August 31, 2011, 07:53:57 PM
I've been asked to let you know that a food drive is being organized by our neighboring community of Cambridge for hurricane stricken Bennington County. Most Cambridge area businesses now have boxes ready for your parishable, non-parishable goods, and household items. Bottled water is needed. The need is "insatiable" at this point in Bennington and throughout southern Vermont. Goods will be collected from businesses in Cambridge Friday evening. Let's fill the DumpTruck that Jack Corse has graciously donated for the trip. The truck will leave from 60 Main Street Cambridge at 6am Saturday morning.This food drive has been organized by local officials on both ends,  Cambridge and Bennington.

I know this is short notice. For those who many want to contribute next week, an additional collection is being organized in St. Albans. I'll be sure to share information on that  one as soon as I have it. For more information contact me at cbranagan@leg.state.vt.us
