Bernatello’s spreads cheer

Contributeed report

The Christmas spirit is alive and well at Bernatello’s Food in Maple Lake that every year donates to a Christmas Charity. This year the company’s charity of choice was the Annandale Food Shelf and Every Third Saturday (ETS).

The Annandale Food Shelf serves the communities of Annandale, South Haven and Maple Lake and ETS is a veterans’ organization that helps veterans, their families and the families of active service members.

On Wednesday, Dec. 18, the United States Veterans’ Riding Club (USVRC) transported the donation from Bernatello’s to the two organizations.

A truckload of items was loaded and shipped from Bernatello’s in Maple Lake to ETS. Bernatello’s also donated to the Annandale Food Shelf in time for Christmas.

Volunteers load the donations onto the waiting truck outside of Bernatello’s in December.
