SUNBURY, Pa. The Greater Susquehanna Valley United way is opening a career closet so that folks can look their best on job interviews.
With so many people out of work because of the COVID-19 pandemic, professional clothing is not the first thing on their minds. But when it s time for a job interview, many people find themselves scrambling for something to wear. I found that locally we were really under-resourced. We only had one small offering at our PA CareerLink, said Angela Hummel, a board member at the Greater Susquehanna Valley United Way.
The donation is part of the grocery store chain s Fight Hunger program. Author: Nikki Krize Updated: 4:58 PM EST December 23, 2020
SHAMOKIN DAM, Pa. The parking lot at W&L Nissan in Shamokin Dam was filled with vehicles on Wednesday, but most were not for sale. People waited in line for free gallons of milk, courtesy of Weis Markets and the Greater Susquehanna Valley United Way. Very nice that Weis and United Way are doing this. Especially this year because it s been a tough year, Aletha Reitz said.
Weis Markets donated 10,000 gallons of milk for this event and two others in Pittston and Harrisburg. It s all part of the grocery store chain s Fight Hunger program, which supports local food banks. The milk was given out drive-thru style.
