Local Edward Jones branches collect food for area food banks

Published

on

During the summer months, the Front Royal Edward Jones branches collected non-perishable food from clients to donate to the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank.

“We thought it was a great way to engage with our clients to help neighbors who need food,” said Greg Demski. “Our firm’s purpose is to partner for positive impact to improve the lives of our clients and colleagues, and together, better our communities and society. There is a lot of attention on the need for food during the winter holidays, but we know the need is year-round. This project was a great way to partner with our clients to better our local community.”

The Front Royal Edward Jones financial advisors are Bret Hrbek, Greg Demski, Lloyd Knight, Bryon Biggs, and Chuck Nagelvoort.

On Friday, September 2, Edward Jones team members from Warren, Frederick, Clarke, and Shenandoah Counties delivered 1,110 pounds of food to the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank.

“We look forward to continuing our efforts to participate in the communities we serve individually, as representatives of Edward Jones and partners with our clients and neighbors,” said Hrbek To learn more about Edward Jones efforts around the country, visit Purpose Inclusion and Citizenship | Edward Jones.
