The Eastern Bank will sponsor a Food Drive for the
Interfaith Food Pantry on Saturday, September 28th from 10AM-Noon at
the Americal Civic Center (lower level) on Main St. Members of the community are encouraged to
drop off non-perishable food items to the Eastern Bank during the week, or at
the Food Pantry on Saturday morning.
Checks made payable to The Wakefield Interfaith Food Pantry will also be
gratefully accepted. For an updated list
of most needed food items, please visit the website: www.wifoodpantry.org
The WIFP would also like to thank The Wakefield High School
Marching Band, the Music Boosters and Mr. Tom Bankert for hosting an
impressively successful food drive again this year. This organization collected
over 3,000 items of food and delivered it to the Pantry on Saturday, September
14th. The enthusiasm and generosity of community groups in Wakefield
is always tremendously appreciated as we try to serve individuals and families
in need.
