We spoke with Matt Wilkinson of Beck Cohen, Jay Taggart of W.E. Brown, and Steve Stonelake from Albemarle Heating & Air who have teamed for the 1st Annual Comfort Food Drive. Now through the 31st the three businesses have a friendly competition to see who can collect the most food for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. All the technicians, when on a service call, are asking customers if they would like to contribute – and collecting food items at each of these business locations.  Customers and residents can drop off food at any of their locations.
