Posted on 02 September 2010 by Joycelyne Fadojutimi

East Texas Food Bank feeds anyone who needs food. Their task of feeding hungry East Texans is enormous. AT&T besides making a recent contribution of $25,000 to East Texas Food Bank also has volunteers who donate time to feed the hungry.
Candice Gast, Northeast External Affairs Director coordinated the recent check presentation and volunteers.
According to Traci Potter, AT&T area manager and a volunteer, words cannot describe how huge the Food Bank operation is. Potter has been with AT&T for 30 years. She and other AT&T employees are very acquainted with giving to the community in order to make a positive difference. “AT&T is dead serious about United Way,” she said. “I am very proud of what AT&T is doing. AT&T is a great community partner. I am glad I work for a company like AT&T.”
Debra Berry another AT&T volunteer had no idea the East Texas Food Bank was that large and located right here in Tyler. “I have donated money but did not know they had such a great impact on the region,” Berry said. “I am delighted to be a volunteer and see first hand, the difference Cialis East Texas Food Bank makes in the lives of people.”
