This 40th year of the event - Bounty of Bethlehem - is partnering with the Community Foundation of Henderson County to allow for tax-deductible contributions, Annamarie Jakubielski, director of Bounty of Bethlehem, announced.
In 2022, Bounty of Bethlehem served 2,189 meals, including deliveries to shut-ins, law enforcement, EMS, fire departments, to-go meals and guests who dined at the beautifully decorated Salvation Army location on Third Avenue East.
