SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
VETERANS FOOD DRIVE & FUNDRAISER
Once again we are teaming up with Grapenuts Wine as a drop-off location for their Vino for Our Vets Food Drive and Fundraiser benefiting the Veterans Residential Services of Wilson (VRSW). This private non-profit agency is dedicated to providing quality support and services to area low-income veterans with the goal of residential stability in the community. Please consider donating non-perishable food items that have not expired for our veterans who have given their service to our Country. A donation box will remain in our Front Lobby through November 7th.
This year's silent auction will be online. Donors include: Grapenuts Wine, Casita Brewing Company, Wilson Family YMCA, Jana Lake - State Farm, Erika Thomas - State Farm, Sarah Bowers, Epiphany Wine Co, Empire Distributors, Steve Eudy, and Coastal Posh Boutique. Grapenuts Wine will also be raffling off ONE bottle of Opus One 2015! (A $400 value). All proceeds will go directly to Veterans Residential Services of Wilson. For more information about the food drive, auction, or raffle, visit grapenutswine.com/vinoforvets.

HELPING FEED LOCAL STUDENTS
Because not every family can get to one of the 23 public schools during lunchtime, Wilson County Schools is looking for volunteers to drive to a designated location in the community and distribute food students. Volunteers are needed between 11:25 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. Monday-Friday on a rotating schedule while remote learning is in place. You do not have to be available the entire time or every day in order to volunteer - even just once would be a tremendous help! For more information, or if you are interested in serving as a volunteer, please contact Gabe Krueger at [email protected].
