CRYSTAL LAKE – What started as a modest company food drive turned into a 2,000 pound collection by one Crystal Lake company.

Gallant Building Solutions delivered 2,392 pounds of food to the Crystal Lake Food Pantry Wednesday, a number employees never imagined they could reach. The original goal was to reach 1,000 pounds.

“It was insane what came in,” said Gallant Project Accountant Allison Ruckoldt, who played a large part in encouraging employees to take part in the two-week food drive. “It became clear [Monday] that we made [our goal]. And we way made it. Killed it.”
