This November, Verona Local
72 kicked off the season of giving
by collecting donations for the
department’s sixth annual Holiday Food Collection. The department gathered bags upon bags of
canned goods, boxed ingredients
and other food items for donation
to the Verona Heath Department.
Police Officer T.J. Conroy
helped coordinate the food drive
that helps less fortunate families
have more to celebrate the holidays with.
“All year long our members
try and help as many people and
charitable organizations as we
can,” Conroy shared. “During the
holidays, it’s nice to lend a hand
and ease these worries for some.”
Local 72 brought the donations to
the Verona Health Department for
distribution among the public. d
