BELCHERTOWN, Mass. (WWLP) - During the holiday season the Pioneer Valley USO looks out for Western Massachusetts' military families.

On Saturday the USO filled a tractor trailer with donated food at the Stop and Shop on route 9 in Belchertown. It's the USO's annual holiday drive for the food pantry benefiting families in need.

“It's been awesome; people of Belchertown have been wonderful to us. We've been here since eight o'clock this morning in the rain and we're still having a wonderful drive,” Allan Tracy told 22News.

The USO Food Pantry has its headquarters at Westover air reserve base.
