Write a commentOswego Elks Lodge #271 used a $2,000 Beacon grant with generous support from Oswego Lowes to provide the Victory Café, located in the Victory Transformation Center, (VTC), with two new electric stoves and an exhaust hood, said Mary Curcio, VTC interim executive director.
“We are extremely grateful to the Elks and Lowes for this support which helped us go from one cooking stove that fell short of being able to meet the demand for feeding our clients,” Curcio said.
