Pictured, are employees from Lockheed Martin and the Tioga County Open Door Mission.
The Tioga County Open Door Mission would like to extend a huge thank you to the employees of Lockheed Martin Owego. Last month, a team of Lockheed Martin employees arrived with 1,913 pounds of food they had collected in just four days for the Tioga County Open Door Mission’s food pantries.
Cans of soup, peanut butter, jelly, and cans of tuna fish were just some of the many different foods that made up the 1,913 pounds. This donation could not have been better timed with the opening of the Open Door Mission’s new senior food pantry in Waverly, N.Y.
Not only did the Lockheed Martin employees come to the Mission to bring food, they also spent the afternoon, volunteering to do a number of tasks throughout the Mission. From separating scrap metal to cleaning Barbie dolls, the Lockheed Martin volunteers were willing to help with anything they could.
This is the second day of caring and food drive that Lockheed Martin employees have held for the Mission.
