Public Works Food Drive Collection 2020

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CARBONDALE – The City of Carbondale Public Works Department would like to extend our appreciation for everyone that helped make our Fill a Truck Food Drive a success during National Public Works Week!

We were able to collect more than 400 food and household items, which will help support the Good Samaritan Food Pantry and the Victory Dream Center.

Throughout Illinois, dozens of Public Works Departments participated in this year’s APWA Illinois Chapter Fill a Truck Food Drive! Together we are all helping make our community stronger!

 “Carbondale prides itself on providing its visitors, students, businesses and residents with a unique mix of edge and ease. It’s a cultural town, yet free of pretense, embracing the great outdoors as readily as urban sophistication. Here, we are open to new ideas, experiences and cultures, so you are encouraged to both express yourself and be yourself, in all ways. That’s Carbondale…All Ways Open… for family, fun, business, new ideas and a bright tomorrow.”
