FISH Benefits from Donations
City of Galesburg employees donated a truck full of non-perishable food to help replenish the FISH food pantry.

As part of the employee picnic, employees were asked to donate non-perishable food for the pantry. Several departments had 100% participation and received a small token of appreciation donated by NAEIR. The food was delivered to the pantry on Friday afternoon.

Pictured with the truck load of food are members of the Employee Picnic Planning Committee.
