20 Patrol Cars Filled With Donations During Horsham Police Food Drive

HORSHAM TOWNSHIP, PA —Lt. Larry Bozzomo says it's his favorite day of the year.

As he took bags and boxes of food donations and packed yet another patrol car on this brisk Saturday morning, Bozzomo didn't believe the police department could reach its record of 22 cars filled.

But it came close.

"We collected 20 full cars of food for those less fortunate in our area," Horsham ChATs posted on its Facebook page. "Thank you Horsham for your generous support."

Organizers told Patch that while the food drive fell short of the best, this year may have been the best yet since, with inflation, the food donated costs more.

The Horsham Township Police Department and Horsham ChATs held the annual Pack the Patrol Car Food Drive at the Horsham GIANT Food Store on Dec. 10.

The non-perishable food items are being donated to the St. Vincent de Paul food cupboard.

Horsham Community Police Services thanked Giant for continuing to support the program, Police Chief Scott Fida and police officers Theodore Hrycyszyn, Barrington Ramsay, Lt. John Potts, Sgt. Jeffrey Woodruff, the St. Vincent De Paul team, the Boy Scouts, the Town Watch Special Details Team and the Horsham Neighbors Association board members. Also recognized were HNA member Andrea Kelly, Bozzomo and Patty Muscatello from the St. Vincent De Paul Society.
