Gentiva to distribute food collection bags
Staff members from the Gentiva Home Health offices will be blanketing Cabarrus and Rowan counties through mid-September, distributing food collection bags and gathering donations for Cooperative Christian Ministries in Cabarrus and Rowan Helping Ministries in Rowan as part of the company’s fifth annual food drive.
Gentiva employees at the Kannapolis/Concord and Salisbury offices and their counterparts around the country are placing the food collection bags at various healthcare facilities through Sept. 18.
They are focused on beating last year’s national record, when the drive yielded almost 38,000 pounds of goods for donation to charitable organizations across the country.
Gentiva asks local healthcare providers to contact them for more information on how they and their employees can participate.
