Each truck as it arrived was greeted by volunteers who unloaded the truck, weighed the bags, sorted the items for date and damage, and then either filled the appropriate shelves or stacked the items for future use.
When the last truck had pulled away and the last item sorted the tally came out to net more than 4500 pounds or 2 1/4 tons of food and non-food items.
Thank you
- Franklin neighbors for taking the time to leave a donation
- postal carriers for making the rounds to gather the donations
- volunteers for handling the goods and for helping to stock the shelves!
