Veterans Food Drive At C&C Firearms: Your Help Is Needed

Darren Doyle, story:
A local food drive effort is now underway at one Edmonson County business. C&C Firearms and Outdoors will be accepting non-perishable food items and toiletries through Independence Day. All collected items will be donated to the Veteran's Alliance Center in Bowling Green to benefit local veterans.

"We're focusing on specific items but we won't turn anything away," said store owner Josh Casey. "Monetary donations we receive will be spent here in Edmonson County to purchase food for the vets, which also supports our local economy."

A list of items needed include:

• pancake mix
• Spam
• crackers
• canned potatoes
• dry mashed potatoes
• pasta sauce
• peas
• pinto beans
• tuna
• rice
• dry milk
• peanut butter
• jelly
• coffee
• canned fruit
• syrup
• cereal
• toothbrushes

Donations can be dropped of at C&C's retail location at 640 S Main St Brownsville, KY 42210 during normal business hours, Tues-Fri 10AM-6PM, and 9AM-3PM on Saturdays.
