Local realtors will be picking up food donations for the Salvation Army this evening.

OXFORD COUNTY - Members of the Woodstock Ingersoll Tillsonburg and Area Association of Realtors (WITAAR) will be hitting the streets for the Realtors Care Food Drive today.

They will be picking up donations in Woodstock, Ingersoll, Tillsonburg, Innerkip, Embro, and Sweaburg between 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. this evening. If you found one of the yellow door hangers on your front porch recently, all you have to do is leave your donation out front for someone to pick it up for you.

Local realtor Tammy Betzner says the Woodstock Salvation Army food bank relies on this food drive every year.

"The Realtors Food Drive gives the Woodstock Salvation Army enough food from May 1st to the beginning of September. So we cover and fill their shelves until Christmas time when everyone starts thinking about giving again."

Kelly Byers, another local realtor and WITAAR member, started the food drive back in 2010 and it has donated over 250,000 pounds of food since then. She was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in June 2023 and she was recently presented with the National Realtors Care Award.
