Local philanthropist and community leader Wanda Amos delivered meals catered by Country’s Barbecue for hospital staff at Piedmont Columbus Regional today. She was joined by Piedmont Columbus Regional CEO Scott Hill, Columbus Mayor Skip Henderson, Columbus Police Department Chief Freddie Blackmon, Columbus Fire and EMS Chief Salvatore Scarpa, Muscogee County Sheriff Greg Countryman and Harris County Sheriff Mike Jolley. 

By the end of January, Wanda and Shelby Amos will have provided 2,000 meals to the entire Columbus Police Department, Columbus Fire and EMS, Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office and Harris County Sheriff’s Office. Today 500 meals were delivered to Piedmont’s Midtown and Northside campuses.

The Amos family continues to support the community by reaching out to show appreciation for those workers who have been on the frontline in the fight against COVID-19 for almost 11 months. This is the second time since March 2020 that Wanda and Shelby have shown their appreciation for these workers by providing meals. 

Wanda Amos is dedicated to do what she can to help these essential workers feel appreciated during these trying times.

“Shelby and I believe, now more than ever, we need to come together as a community. We need to find the energy and determination we had last spring to win the fight against COVID-19,” said Amos. “I believe if we put aside our differences and our community pulls together there is nothing we can’t accomplish.”
