Milton Food Pantry Participating in Feinstein Foundation’s $1 Million “Fight Hunger” Challenge

The Milton Community Food Pantry is a totally volunteer-run nonprofit agency that provides food assistance exclusively to residents of Milton. The Food Pantry, which has been in operation for 18 years, is located at the the Parkway United Methodist Church, which generously donates space for the Pantry’s operation.

Remarkably, despite the abundance around us, there are 163 Milton households comprised of 513 residents, including 225 children and 37 seniors, who are authorized to use the pantry due to individual financial circumstances.

Currently, the Milton Food Pantry is participating in the Feinstein Foundation’s $1 Million “Fight Hunger” Challenge. Any donation made in March / April will have additional value as a result of this initiative. The Feinstein Foundation is donating $1 million dollars to fight hunger. This is how it works. Food pantries and and food distribution agencies raise funds and then submit the amount to Fienstein who then makes awards to those agencies in proportion to how much they raised in comparison to each other. You can learn more about the program here. This will greatly augment any contribution that you make during this period. So, please do what you can.
