Gloucester Toyota partnered with the Salvation Army to hold a food box distribution last Thursday, sponsored by the Toyota Lexus Minority Owners Dealership Association.

Major Jim Spencer of the Salvation Army of the Virginia Peninsula said the organization brought around 400 boxes of food to be handed out to Gloucester residents. About 50 boxes were donated; however, Spencer said the remaining boxes will be available for pickup at the Gloucester Salvation Army, located at 7059 Linda Circle.
