FM #1031 - Franklin Food Pantry Launches Building Campaign

This session of the radio show shares my conversation with Tina Powderly, Executive Director of the Franklin Food Pantry. We had our conversation in the new location of the Franklin Food Pantry at Edwin’s. We talk about the happy news that the Food Pantry has their own home, finally. While they are appreciative of the space Rockland Trust has let them use for many, their needs had outgrown the space. Disclosure: during the conversation you will hear about my background with the Food Pantry and that I have committed to this capital campaign.The recording runs about 25 minutes, so let’s listen to my conversation with Tina.--------------The Franklin Food Pantry is here for you. If you need us, we are here with not only food, but useful programs and resources for individuals, seniors and families struggling with food insecurity. If you can support us, we thank you - visit franklinfoodpantry.org to explore volunteering, donating funds, donating food, or supporting our Capital Campaign to keep the lights on and the programs, from food elves to weekend backpack stuffing. It truly takes a village to keep our food pantry running and supporting the increasing demand, supporting our Franklin neighbors.--------------We are now producing this in collaboration with Franklin.TV and Franklin Public Radio (wfpr.fm). This podcast is my public service effort for Franklin but we can't do it alone.
