It's typically a busy season for a catering service like Donovan's Dish, but every day more events are canceled. So this week the service will answer the call to help first responders on the front lines.
"I think naturally if you're able to do something and you still have the means to do it, you should absolutely do it," said Jill Donovan, owner of Donovan's Dish
The creator of Christmas Lights on Holt Road is calling on local businesses to step up and help each other. This week he donated $1,200 to Donovan's Dish and asked them to deliver the meals to Apex firefighters.
"It's such a win-win. And it shows how good people are and how much good is going to come out of this," Donovan said.
Donovan said baked ziti meals will feed about 75 firefighters and they will also donate goodies to keep in the freezers.
