Feeding The Hungy in Metro West
Upon the heels of September’s being Hunger Awareness month, both Sudbury synagogues, Congregation Beth El and Congregation B’nai Torah, sponsored their annual food drives on October 9th. The Sudbury Community Food Pantry, being one of four nonprofit organizations to whom each of the synagogues donated food, gratefully received over 100 bags of groceries and personal care products – mostly focusing on items which are particularly popular and harder to obtain. Thank you to all who participated.
Staff and parents of Bright Horizons of Sudbury (preschool), donated food, paper goods and personal care products to our Food Pantry, which items were collected during September “Hunger Awareness” Month.
On May 9th, Curtis Blomberg, of Keller Williams Realty Boston Northwest, honored the real estate businesses’ annual day of community service (‘RED Day”, which stands for Renew, Energize and Donate) by conducting a food drive for the Sudbury Community Food Pantry at Sudbury Farms. Thanks to Curtis and those who donated food and/or made financial contributions.
In response to the National Association of Letter Carriers’ annual “Stamp Out Hunger” Food Drive, held on Sat. May 11th, the Sudbury community generously donated over 200 bags of groceries, providing a bounty of donations beyond anything the volunteers at the Sudbury Community Food Pantry recall seeing in prior years. Many thanks to those who donated, to the letter carriers who transported the donations, and to the volunteers who handled all the donations of food and personal products.
Form Wicked Local: “The Peter Noyes Elementary School has donated $951 to the Sudbury Food Pantry, raising the funds through the 11th annual Pottery Auction held on Open House Night.”
