By Salem Red Sox July 20, 2022

W.S. Connelly & Co, Inc. would like to invite you to join us for a Community Outreach Event to benefit Feeding Southwest Virginia at the Red Sox Stadium in Salem, VA, on Sunday, Aug 7th, 2022. The gates will open at 4:05 PM for entrance to the baseball game.


W.S. Connelly & Co, Inc. has been operating locally since we were founded in the 1950s as a simple feed ‘n’ seed business with just a handful of employees. Today we have grown to over 100 employees across several states with multiple locations. We are a family-owned business with strong values…environmental stewardship, diversity and community engagement are our core operating beliefs.

W.S. Connelly & Co., Inc. has always been a great supporter of the local communities and we are proud to be hosting a food drive to raise food donations for the benefit of Feeding Southwest Virginia, a member food bank of Feeding America.

Please join us on Aug 7, 2022, to help support your local food bank! Just bring your cans, or non-perishable food items, a minimum of one food item per person (for the FIRST 500 PERSONS), and we will provide you with a ticket to the baseball game!


‘What provides a better feeling than giving back?’
