The Queens Galley, a non-profit organization in Kingston that provides food to the hungry, is the recipient of Central Hudson’s $500 Facebook promotion. In late April and early May of 2011, Central Hudson held a contest to donate $500 to a Hudson Valley-based charity chosen by a randomly selected “friend” of Central Hudson’s Facebook page.
Central Hudson Facebook friend Diane Reeder won the random drawing. “Diane also happens to be the Founder and Executive Director of The Queens Galley, and understandably chose her organization as the recipient charity,” said Denise D. VanBuren, Corporate Secretary & Vice President of Public Relations for Central Hudson. “We congratulate Diane and The Queens Galley, and hope the contribution will provide needed funds to support the organization’s mission.”
The Queens Galley serves breakfast, lunch and dinner daily to any person seeking a meal. The food is prepared from all-natural ingredients, and served so that people may dine with dignity. The Queens Galley, located on Washington Avenue in Kingston, serves more than 9,000 meals each month, funded by donations alone.
