Chehalis, WA – Lewis County PUD (PUD) employees collaborated in raising $3,000 and on Monday, December 4, 2023, they donated it to the Lewis County Food Bank Coalition (LCFBC).
The funds are 100% provided by PUD employees through donations and fundraising. Every $1 contributed to LCFBC translates into at least $1.72 in food they are able to distribute to nine food banks throughout Lewis County.
The Lewis County PUD team appreciates the work the Lewis County Food Bank Coalition accomplishes for our community and is proud to be able to support their mission with this donation.
“This donation shows the heart of our PUD employees for our community,” said PUD General Manager David Plotz. “It’s a humbling reminder of service to the neediest, and I am proud of our team’s spirit of generosity.”
