15 Years of Kindness in Action
Fifteen years ago a small group of concerned individuals established Centre Street Food Pantry because they discovered that people from Newton and neighboring cities needed another resource for food assistance.
Centre Street Food Pantry began in a tiny room downstairs in Trinity Church and offered shelf stable groceries to approximately ten households a week, most of them senior citizens.
Due to the ongoing support from a community full of concerned individuals, today Centre Street now gives food in a curbside pickup model to approximately 325 families a week that include over 1,000 people!
Please take a few minutes to watch the video to hear the voices that have been part of our 15 year evolution!
