Together, Stronger with Friday Night Community

“With the help of the Burlington Foundation Pandemic Response Fund we were able to purchase much needed food when we flipped from our weekly community meal to a Take Home Meal Bag program.  We are not only assisting friends who came in our doors on Fridays, but also new folks who are now needing food support due to health challenges, social isolation as well as unexpected financial hardships. We continue to provide over 1000 meals bags each week, while delivering to over 120 residences who are not able to pick up due to extenuating circumstances.”

One participant shared, “I just want to say that you have been the biggest help during the rough time we had and I am so very happy there are people in the world who do these types of things.”
