HUTCHINSON, Kan. — City Beverage presented the Food Bank of Reno County with a check on Wednesday.
Vice President of City Beverage, Chris Welsh, along with other representatives from City Beverage presented a check for $4,450.00.
"It means a lot to be able to give back to the community," Welsh said. "I'm fortunate enough to be able to work for owners Ann Bush and Matt Michener, and we all have similar big hearts that want to help the community out. All 36 of us at City Beverage take a lot of pride in the community."
The donation means a lot to the Food Bank of Reno County, as well.
"That'll help us buy more food and supply," Penny Taapken with the Food Bank of Reno County said. "The need is more and this time of year the donations are down, so this is very much appreciated."
Based in Hutchinson, City Beverage was founded in 1974 by John Stephens. In 1996, John’s daughter, Ann Bush, and husband, Bob Bush, joined the company, eventually purchasing City Beverage from John in 2003. Today, Ann and Matt Michener lead the company, which includes an impressive 52,000 square foot facility and more than 30 employees.
