Lehighton food bank donation

Mallard Markets of Lehighton has donated $1,048.34 to the Trinity Lutheran Food Bank in Lehighton. Frank Kuhn, president of Mallard Markets, said the money was through donations from customers as well as a contribution of $500 directly from the business. He said the odd figure came as a result of customers saying "keep the pennies, keep the change. We incorporate this change into the various donations we make." Kuhn, second from right, presents a check to Ron and Carolyn Long, left, co-coordinators of the food bank. At right is Kuhn's wife, Karen. Ron Long said the food bank serves 450 to 500 families in the Lehighton Area School District each month.
