The Rotary Club of Essex will be holding a food drive at the Price Chopper Essex on Center Rd. from 9am to 2pm. Donated food will be collected to benefit the Heavenly Food Pantry in Essex Jct. The Heavenly Food Pantry serves approximately 80 families per month in the Essex Community. It is an essential food program to help feed our hungry neighbors.
Please go to Price Chopper between 9 AM and 2 PM and help Essex Rotary by donating non-perishable food items. Rotary Club members will be on-site to assist donors with information about the specific needs of our neighbors who use the Heavenly Food Pantry.
Many thanks to Matt Lumsden Real Estate who lends the company's box van to transport the collected items to Heavenly Food Pantry.
2022 Event Report from Tim Gendron:
Dear Fellow Rotarians,
On a Beautiful Saturday, October 1, 2022, our Rotary Club held another food drive to benefit the Heavenly Food Pantry. There was a wonderful response by our community to support this service project as we filled 34 boxes of non-perishable food items and goods. A rough estimate is approximately 900 pounds collected and delivered to Heavenly Food Pantry.
