FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 3, 2022


Commissioners and Cans Food Drive


CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA - The Commissioners & Cans Food and Fund Drive, an annual partnership between The Commissioners of the Revenue Association of Virginia and the Virginia Federation of Food banks will span statewide once again throughout the month of August. Commissioners of the Revenue across the Commonwealth will take on the fight against food insecurity. 

Now, in its fourth year The Commissioners and Cans Food and Fund Drive is a month-long competition for Commissioners of Revenue offices to join together to raise food and funds for their local food banks throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia. Offices compete to collect the most food/funds during a time of the year when resources are in short supply and the need remains great. This year, the Charlottesville Commissioner of the Revenue's Office, with a huge assist from the Charlottesville Fire Department, plans to out-raise our colleagues from around the State.

“We are honored to participate yet again in such a worthwhile cause, and we appreciate the assistance of Chief Smith and the CFD and Chief Durrette and the CPD the with collections and helping spread the word.“ – Todd Divers, Charlottesville Commissioner of the Revenue
