PICKAWAY COUNTY, Ohio — A wave of community spirit swept across Pickaway County this season as city and county offices joined forces for a friendly competition that resulted in more than 11,500 donated food items and over $2,500 raised for local families in need.

The donated goods will support the Community Cupboards of Pickaway County , a volunteer-driven network led by Ken Tennant , which operates 24 free food cupboards across the county.

Organizers say the effort highlighted what can happen when local agencies work together with a common purpose.

“I am in total awe of how we came together,” said event coordinator Katie Logan Hedges . “We secured over $2,500 and more than 11,000 items. This is a shining example of Pickaway County helping Pickaway County.”
