Dear fellow Hanoverians:
The Postal Workers’ Annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is almost here
again! It will be held Saturday, May 13, 2017. There will be a
combination of food drive volunteers and postal service workers making the
rounds. The Hanover Food Pantry is in serious need of volunteers on that
day again this year. What better way to support residents of our town in
need? Please consider volunteering at the food pantry! It is also a great
way for those who need service hours to accrue some time for a good cause.
The good folks at the Hanover Food Pantry need:
• Drivers and gatherers (beginning as early as 10:30 a.m. or anytime up
through 3:30 p.m.) to go out on assigned routes for food pick-up. Take a
long route or a short route, no matter what; your help will be appreciated.
You’ll be given a map, and you will bring the food you gather back to the
pantry.
• Sorters to be stationed at the pantry from 11:30 a.m. through 5:30
p.m., in two hour shifts. Feel free to stay as long as you like. The food
pantry will supply water, soda, coffee or tea and PB&J sandwiches, along
with hard work and a good time.
Anyone wishing to volunteer to drive and pick up or sort donations can do
so by e-mailing Sally Lovett Boutin at kidsense@comcast.net or calling her
at 781-826-6485, or on her cell at 781-799-0053 (texting also available).
Remember that all collected food stocks the shelves of our very own Hanover
Food Pantry for our friends and neighbors in need. The food that is
gathered each year at the Postal Workers Annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive
sees those in need through the summer when the churches, civic
organizations, schools and other groups stop or slow their regular
collections. Your support will be greatly appreciated.
Regardless of your ability to volunteer to help that day, please don’t
forget to donate your food to the town-wide drive on May 13th!
Thank you.
Sally Lovett Boutin
Food Pantry President
