The Allegany County Democratic Committee (ACDC) delivered ­­­­a dozen bags of non-perishable food and personal care items to the Blessing Box on the grounds of the Methodist Church on Park Circle, Angelica. Donations were collected at the recent “Coffee with Democrats” event. This is one way the Democratic Committee lives its motto: “Serving our Community.”

The Blessing Box is a ‘little free pantry’ for the community. It is a mission of the Methodist Church and supported by all of Angelica’s churches and members of the community.  It makes available nourishing food and personal care items for anyone in need 24 hours a day.

Leslie Haggstrom, manager of the Angelica Blessing Box, said, “This large donation will supply our Blessing Box for several weeks.  Thank you, Allegany County Democrats, for organizing this large collection.”  If you or your organization would like to help, please call or text 585-610-2209.

The next “Coffee with Democrats” will take place on Sat., Feb. 8, 2025.  All registered Democrats and friends of the party are invited to drop in for a chat and to learn about our local initiatives.  Sign up here to receive details: https://forms.gle/s6x5Zz34TRAUC7CN8
