For our “2008 Feed the Hungry Month Campaign” in February; Dave Bogart encouraged his employees for one week to track their dollars spent for lunches and he would match them dollar for dollar and donate those funds to the Buffalo City Mission for Feed the Hungry Month.  As a group, they were able to provide 88 nutritious meals for the poor and homeless of WNY.
