BEAVER BANK: The community has helped out the Beaver Bank Kinsac Fire Association support two local food banks and a food pantry.
Station 48 firefighters held their yearly food drive again this year, which was another success.
With donations from the community and funds raised from the Nova Scotia Firefighters 50-50, they were able to collect several boxes of food.
That allowed them to donate more than $5,000 to local food banks.
