FREMONT — Fremont Youth and Community Outreach recently received a grant from the Steuben County United Way to fund a new outdoor freezer, which allows them to store even more supplies for families in need.

The new outdoor freezers came in especially handy with a recent donation the outreach organization received from Miller Poultry. The Orland based company donated 240 pounds of chicken thighs and 2,400 packages of chicken sausages.

Fremont Youth and Community Outreach has been supporting the Fremont community for over 20 years with a variety of services, particularly through their food pantry.

They are a non-profit food pantry distributes to families once per month, and each family leaves with a grocery cart full of food to support them, including meat, produce and non-perishable items.

Those who may want to follow the lead of Miller Poultry and make donations can do so by dropping them off at the Fremont Community Church. The church is located at 601 North Coldwater Street in Fremont.
