Twenty trees were distributed to food bank clients and 40 were distributed amongst St. George Roman Catholic Parish, the Salvation Army, Project HELP, and Pinal County District 5 to give to additional families, according to a release.

Apache Junction Food Bank Board President Bob Mohle helped unload the trees and thanked Costco for its gesture of goodwill.

“This was business and community coming together in the true spirit of the holiday season. What could be better than that? Mr. Mohle  said.
