On Friday, Nov. 18, a team of employees from the Best Buy Distribution Center in Nichols, N.Y. showed up at Tioga County Catholic Charities with over 2,700 pounds of food. Turkeys, potatoes, canned and boxed foods, baked goods, and everything else imaginable was part of this extensive donation. Cases of laundry detergent and personal care items were also included. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are more than just a business, we are neighbors helping neighbors,\u201d said Rebecca Brown, Best Buy employee, adding, \u201cWe\u2019ve been working long days, and doing something like this makes it all worthwhile.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

The Best Buy Distribution Center in Nichols employs approximately 450 people and nearly all participate in the monthly charitable fundraisers. Every month, they vote on a local organization, and develop a plan to engage the employees in giving back to the community.  <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis donation is truly wonderful,\u201d says Renee Spear, CCTT executive director. \u201cThese upcoming winter months will be our busiest yet in our food pantry,\u201d Spear added. <\/span><\/p>\n

The pantry at Catholic Charities has serviced over 5,000 individuals during 2021 and the numbers for 2022 are on target to be significantly more. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThank you to all of the employees at Best Buy who were a part of this food drive,\u201d said Spear, adding, \u201cYou are providing not just food to our neighbors in need, you are providing hope.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n
