Michael Downes, Neighbor

Last December Senator Joe Markley & Rep. Rob Sampson rang the bell for the Salvation Army, which partners with Southington's Community Services. They raised $24,720 in the hour they rang the bell. A matching check from Walmart was delivered this today, adding another $24,720 to help area families in need. Pictured with Rob & Joe are Walmart Director of Public Affairs & Government Relations, Christopher Buchanan; Salvation Army Captain Colette Masom; and Salvation Army Director of Public Relations, Jim Gordon.
