Novotus Employees Give Tons of Food to Feed The Hungry
By Lemuel Cacho 
Novotus personnel give back to their local community food bank two years in a row and show what a huge difference a small company can make.
The company's yearly food drive gave 5,362 pounds, or more than two and a half tons of food for the local Capital Area Food Bank of Texas. The donation was organized by 93 Novotus personnel.
After providing nearly a ton of food a year ago, Novotus personnel set their sights on breaking their record. Again through the effort a genial competition among departments to gather the most pounds of food, they inspired one another to give much more this year. The successful group alone gave 1,953 pounds, exceeding last year's donation of 1,910 pounds.
