FiberLync Volunteers Support Blue Ridge Area Food Bank and Orange Mobile Food Pantry
By: Hailey Davis, Administrative Assistant - Marketing Support, FiberLync; and Orange County Communications Department
FiberLync employees were proud to spend the morning of February 17 giving back to the community by volunteering with the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank’s Mobile Food Pantry during their distribution at Booster Park. Onsite, team members helped unload food boxes, bag essential items, and place them directly into vehicles of local families in need. The recent ice storms left some employees with unexpected downtime. Rather than sit idle, the FiberLync team put that time to good use by stepping in to support neighbors across Orange County. Their efforts highlight the organization’s ongoing commitment to serving the community in meaningful ways. FiberLync extends its gratitude to all employees who volunteered their time and energy to make a positive impact. Booster Park has been hosting the Food Bank’s monthly mobile distribution event for many years. Held on the third Tuesday of every month, the distribution provides a convenient location for Orange County residents to access this important resource. After Orange County Parks & Recreation assumed authority of Booster in 2016, they worked with the Food Bank to expand and streamline operations using the park’s access roads and pavilion, which continues to this day and is a significant benefit during unpleasant weather conditions. Feeling inspired to help others? Orange County’s Community Day of Service is coming up on April 3! Led by the Orange County Public School system, this day encourages all Orange County residents to find a way (big or small) to help our community. Whether picking up litter (which our staff will be doing on Route 20) or checking in on a neighbor, small efforts can make big impacts, especially when we work together. Share your good deeds with #ocDayofService!
