Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church holds massive food drive in support of Seekonk and Rehoboth Food Pantries

Posted

Food pantries in Seekonk and Rehoboth were blessed by massive donations of non-perishable foodstuffs in a recent parish food drive at Our Lady of Mount Carmel church. The generosity of the parishioners is evidenced by the quantity of food donated – several thousand pounds of food worth many thousands of dollars. Volunteers from OLMC delivered the food in convoys to the Rehoboth Food Pantry and to Doorways Food Pantry in Seekonk, then stayed to help unload and sort the donations. Their parish gift supports many Seekonk and Rehoboth residents, and the food provided will grace the dinner tables of homes in our communities for weeks to come. More than a hundred local families rely on these two food pantries, and these local pantries rely on people like the parishioners at OLMC. Thank you!
