The Food Bank for Monterey County would like to acknowledge a gift of $3,134.30 from the Schnitzer Foundation.

The Pick-n-Pull self-service stores generally accommodate older, end-of-life vehicles and are geared towards retail customers such as “do-it-yourselfers.” If you would like more information about Schnitzer Steel Industries and Pick-n-Pull, please go to http://www.schnitzersteel.com/values_sustainability_2.aspx.
