GREAT BEND–Wheatland Electric Cooperative, Inc. (WEC) is excited to announce its partnership with Abbey Carpet and Floor to Power the Pantry!

Abbey Carpet and Floor, a locally owned business, is committing $500 to the Community Food Bank of Barton County to help stock shelves and give the pantry the flexibility to purchase the items they need most.

Abbey Carpet’s donation bolsters WEC’s annual effort to Power the Pantry ahead of the holiday season. This year WEC has committed $50,000 to one dozen local food banks across southwest and central Kansas with the goal to DOUBLE that commitment through business partnerships like the collaboration with Abbey Carpet & Floor.

Recently, Abbey Carpet & Floor celebrated 50 years serving the Great Bend and surrounding communities.

As a family-owned business for the past five decades, supporting other area families by helping power the local pantry was a big way to show their appreciation to the community that has given them so much.
