Knights work with others to feed a community

On Dec. 18, our office, in conjunction with the
office of Rep. John Legg and the Pasco County
Sheriff’s Office, held our annual Farm Share
Holiday Food Giveaway in Pasco County. Every
year, Florida farmers and the Farm Share Program
donate a truckload of produce and other goods
that are distributed to local families who need food
for the holiday season.
The day was a great success, providing food
for more than 500 families. The food giveaway
continues to be a success because of the
commitment and involvement of many people who
volunteer their time to spread some holiday cheer
to these families.
There were dozens of volunteers from
organizations including the Pasco County Sheriff’s
Office, the Pasco County Explorer’s program, the
New Port Richey Police Department, the Suncoast
Epilepsy Association and the Knights of
Columbus Council 5869.
Lowe’s of New Port Richey donated the forklift
and operator to unload the food and the managers
at Trinity Self Storage were gracious enough to
host the event in their parking lot. Students and
teachers from Chasco Elementary and Middle School and Dayspring Academy collected canned
goods for the event. Brian Singletary and his staff
at the Southgate Publix provided hams and
potatoes at a reduced cost to compliment the
produce of Farm Share.
Everyone helped make this event a success and
we look forward to continuing the food giveaway
for years to come.
Mike Fasano,
Florida State Senator,
District 11
