Our Purpose

In addition to providing public education to the communities of Concord and Carlisle, MA. We are responsible for ensuring access to nutritious, affordable, and sustainable foods to our students. Because of the pandemic, members of our community who are economically at risk would not have access to this vital resource. As a result, we are offering curbside pickup of prepared meals, dry goods, etc. for our vulnerable families. Our operating budget is able to support all salaries in this effort, but we require donations or grants to support food costs. We are currently serving 40-50 families a day, for breakfast and lunch. Participation has gradually grown and we expect that trend to continue as this crisis unfolds. We will continue to offer this program for as long as funding is available to support food costs.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
