Dems Sort 4500 Lbs. At Boston Food Bank!

Posted on Sat, 03/10/2007 - 5:28pm by Markus Kolic

Last Friday at our Service Day, a dedicated group of Dems traveled to the Greater Boston Food Bank, where -- along with four local Good Samaritans who happened to be around -- we sorted, inspected, and packaged 4593 pounds of grocery-store salvage food. That's 283 pounds per person. In total, we made possible 2821 meals for hungry people around Eastern Massachusetts.

It was a great experience, and we thank the Food Bank for letting us come in and help out. If you'd like to volunteer for the Greater Boston Food Bank (and trust me, it's a lot of fun in a group or on your own), contact them.
