MEDFIELD FOOD CUPBOARD Website Link
Several food collection bins have been set up in the narthex of the church for donations to the Medfield Food Cupboard. Interested parishioners are encouraged to make a donation when attending Mass. At this time, the Medfield Food Cupboard is serving 85 adults, 17 senior citizens and 44 children, and your donations would help feed our Medfield neighbors in need. Last year enough food was supplied for 60 households to make 3-4 meals per week; this was made possible by donors’ financial and food contributions to the Food Cupboard. All unexpired, unopened and non-perishable donations are deeply appreciated. Food Cupboard is especially in need of juice boxes, kid friendly cereal (example: Cinnamon Toast Crunch), lunch size boxes of raisins, peanut butter, jam, canned pasta and sauce, bags of rice, tuna (in water preferred), and cookies/crackers/salty snacks. (Please leave your donations in the bins provided).
