Our sole purpose is to feed the hungry of Weymouth
We do this with the help of a generous community and with dedicated volunteers. We provide canned goods, pasta, rice, cereals, meat, milk, cheese, eggs, etc. When available, we also supply diapers and some personal products.
Thanks to a group of concerned citizens, which then became The Weymouth Council for the Hungry, the Weymouth Food Pantry opened in 1987 with a little food and a lot of love in its heart. There was then, and is now, a real need for a food pantry in Weymouth. What we do is feed the hungry and those at risk of going hungry. We see the young and the old, families and individuals, the working poor and those who cannot work because of poor health, age or incapacitating mental illness. Some are in or trying to recover from a life crisis.
Anyone in town who needs help is welcome. Our staff of volunteers is here to help.
Weymouth is comprised of many neighborhoods. Whether you are a community neighbor, a next door neighbor or a business neighbor, your help is desperately needed to ease the plight of the hungry in Weymouth Become a key part of the hunger equation.
Without YOU, we would not be able to help.
As of early February, Nancy has raised $1,163 towards her goal of $5,000 for the Weymouth Food Pantry. With your help, she'll make her goal. Please support her efforts by clicking on the chart to the left.
