Hams and Sander's Market gift certificates were given out Saturday morning at the Rocky Grove Fire Hall to give local folks a little something nice for their Easter dinner. Through an effort by the United Way and a healthy donation from a couple with a really big heart, 1,400 meals were provided. "The donor would only like to be recognized as a local caring couple," said the Venango County United Way director Will Price.
Dozens of volunteers helped load the meals into cars to keep everyone socially distanced and safe. After three hours a few hams were left so they took them to the Community Services of Venango County food bank. Price said the remaining hams will be passed out this week to families who weren't able to make it Saturday.
Franklin Chamber director Jodi Baker Lewis shared a lighter moment too. One of the volunteers was mistakingly crediting the free meals to the United Nations and not the United Way.
Either way, more people will have a nice Easter meal thanks to volunteers and a couple wh really care about others because of a united effort by the United Way.
