To say that this yearâs 40th annual ABC-13 âShare Your Holidaysâ food drive held Dec. 4 at Ball High School was a success is definitely an understatement
This year â thanks to our incredible team of 22 âShare Your Holidaysâ Community Partners, our generous community, contributions from Galveston Independent School District elementary and middle schools and the FeedGalveston team â we collected 28,483 pounds of quality nonperishable food products and received $34,020 in monetary donations. This was, by far, the most successful year ever.
Again, we wouldnât have been able to accomplish what we did without the commitment, enthusiasm, participation and generosity of our valued Community Partners: American National Insurance Co.; the University of Texas Medical Branch; Randalls; Galveston College; Port of Galveston; Galveston Ministerial Association (Congregation Bânai Israel, First Lutheran Church, Moody Methodist Church, Trinity Episcopal Church and Holy Family Parish); city of Galveston; Galveston Police Department; Galveston Fire Department; The Galveston County Daily News; Moody Gardens; HomeTown Bank; Texas First Bank; Frost Bank; Moody Bank; Galveston County Young Lawyers Association; Galveston Association of Realtors; Affinity Urgent Care Clinics; Ball High School Student Council; Ball High School Hospitality Program; Galveston Hotel & Lodging Association; and AMOCO Federal Credit Union.
