WELLSBORO, PA – C&N, a leading community-oriented organization, is proud to announce that teammates have raised just over $100,000 through their Giving Back, Giving Together initiative to support local emergency services organizations. In addition to the monetary donations, C&N teammates collected 3,037 necessity items and volunteered 265 hours at our local fire departments and similar facilities. The Giving Back, Giving Together program supports a new cause every year, beginning each June. As of June 2023, C&N teammates will be shifting their fundraising efforts to supporting the local senior population.
When there is an accident or a fire, those coming to your aid are generally volunteers. While many of these emergency organizations get state and local funding, it usually isn’t enough to cover the extensive training and expensive equipment needed for the job. Without monetary aide, many local emergency organizations would be forced to close, putting a burden on the communities they work so hard to serve. Giving Back, Giving Together is an initiative close to the hearts of C&N teammates, born out of a common interest to serve those within the community who are struggling.
Over the last 12 months, C&N teammates have raised over $100,000 along with 3,037 donation items and completed 265 hours of volunteering. This significant contribution will go directly towards supporting and enhancing the critical services provided by our local ambulance and fire companies, ensuring they have the necessary resources to continue their life-saving work.
