Since 2017, Barb and John Sharkey III have supported Fulton Block Builder (FBB)grass- roots revitalization project. The Sharkey’s were impressed to learn that there has been over three million dollars invested by residents since FBB began six years ago.
“Each year brings more inspiration and makes the city of Fulton a great place to do business,” John Sharkey III said. “I am happy to see this kind of excitement in the city and am pleased to support further growth. Fulton has many positive attributes for living and doing business, it’s impressive to see a program like this take off in such a strong way and we are proud to be a part of it.”
Barb and John Sharkey III spent their summers in the Mexico area as children and fell in love with all that is Oswego County. They have been very active in the community serving on many boards, volunteering, and supporting programs that make a difference. “When the Sharkey’s see a need, they go into action” said Linda Eagan FBB Director. “Six years ago, they heard that the Mexico Food Pantry was closing, but they wouldn’t have it. Soon they purchased the old bowling alley and started construction on a state-of-the-art food pantry. It has been an enormous force in northern Oswego County. I can’t thank the Sharkey’s enough for all that they do.”
