Democrats Donate to Cuba Food Pantry 

Belmont, NY –  The Allegany County Democrats collected 20 bags/boxes of non-perishable food and personal care items when they met recently in West Clarksville. The goods were donated to the food pantry operated by the Cuba Council of Churches: Our Lady of Angels Roman Catholic Church, Christ Episcopal Church, First Baptist Church, Cuba Methodist Church, and North Park Wesleyan Church. This service project is one of the ways the Democratic Committee lives its motto: “Serving our Community”.

“The Cuba community never ceases to provide and amaze me,” states Claudia Little, Food Pantry Director. “When a need arises, they provide for their neighbors. The Cuba-Rushford school district is so blessed to have the support of so many.  Cuba Council of Churches Food Pantry is ready to meet the needs of those facing difficult times: offering food and gas vouchers for medical trips or job interviews, and lodging in emergency situations. The Holiday Assistance program allows many families to enjoy a happier holiday season.”

The pantry is located at the First Baptist Church, 17 South St and is open by appointment.  Those needing assistance can call 585-968-2347 or 585-968-1531 for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Please join the county Democrats on Saturday, March 8th in Almond for coffee and to support the community’s local food pantry.  Contact us for details at info@alleganycountydemocrats.org, or 585-610-4321 or on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/alleganycodems ) or Threads  https://www.threads.net/@allegany_ny_dems  )
