OCSEA Chapter 2528 Recognized for Its Generosity to Needy Families

The Mid-Ohio Food Collective recently invited members of Ohio EPA Chapter 2528 to tour the organization’s warehouse in Grove City. But this was more than just a tour, it was a thank you to the chapter’s members for their ongoing generosity to the food bank.

 

Chapter 2528 President Matt Hittle says that when staff worked from home during the Covid pandemic, members voted to donate the money they normally spent on pizza to the food bank. And those donations have continued every year since 2020 for a total of nearly $11,000.

 

The Mid-Ohio Food Collective helps needy families in 20 counties across Central and Eastern Ohio. Last year, the food bank distributed more than 84 million pounds of food and groceries to half a million people.
