“Since we started the Egg Nog fundraiser we’ve been able to donate more than $130,000 to the Salvation Army from the sale of more than 2.6 million units of Egg Nog,” said Bill Bennett, v.p. of Oakhurst Dairy.  “We’re committed to helping our local communities and feel strongly about the important work done by the Salvation Army.” According to Bennett, this year’s contribution will extend into Massachusetts for the first time.
