Richard McNabb and Ron Rapoza of the Lt. Cyrus Garnsey III VFW Post 1323 in Seneca Falls present Cyndi Wing, Client Advocate at the House of Concern with a check for $2,000. McNabb said, “We got the letter from the House of Concern telling us about the greater need this year, so we were happy to be able to help out.”
“That’s what we’re here for,” Rapoza agreed. “We’re here to help out our community.”
Employees of the House of Concern are also responding to the greater need the organization is facing in this year of economic struggle, particularly for those who have already been struggling. Many of the folks receiving food from the House of Concern are working one and sometimes several jobs, but simply can’t afford the food they need for their families. The HOC employees have put together a special Raffle, to be drawn on December 16th.
Prizes for the drawing include a 32″ HD LCD TV, an iPod, A gift basket of products from local businesses, a basket of cheer and multiple chances for gift certificates. Tickets are $2 or 3 for $5.
