ELMIRA, N.Y. (WETM) – Centers Health Care presented a check to the Food Bank of the Southern Tier this afternoon to celebrate its 27 years of existence.
The check was presented on Tuesday, Feb. 20, at noon at the Food Bank of the Southern Tier headquarters by Corning Center’s Administrator Kayleigh Smith.
Through its Centers Care initiative, the healthcare system donated a $2,700 check to the food bank for all that they do for the community in the Southern Tier.
The Food Bank of the Southern Tier was chosen for the donation among six other non-profits by a vote that took place at a variety of Centers Health Care locations.
Centers Health Care is the largest network of skilled nursing, rehabilitation and senior care in the Northeast, with locations in New York and New Jersey. The closest location to the Southern Tier is located at 205 East First Street in Corning.

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.
Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.
The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.
Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.
Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
