Food Bank of Western Massachusetts
Приєднався 9 гру 2011
Together, we end hunger. Since 1982, the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts has been a community partner to end hunger. We provide healthy and culturally responsive food directly through our Mobile Food Bank and Brown Bag: Food for Elders sites and through the 169+ member food assistance network in Berkshire, Franklin, Hampden, and Hampshire counties. These independent pantries, meal sites, and shelters are on the front lines, providing food and other resources to individuals, families, seniors, children, and people with disabilities, including veterans, so they may lead healthy and meaningful lives. The Food Bank partners on public education and advocacy to eliminate systemic barriers to food security, operating with the belief that everyone has a right to healthy food.
The Food Bank Solar Project!
The Food Bank of Western Massachusetts proudly flips the switch on our new solar panel system at our Chicopee facility! 🌞⚡ This sustainable energy project, installed by PV Squared, will help reduce our carbon footprint while powering our operations.
With support from Senators Elizabeth Warren, Edward Markey, Representative Arriaga, Mayor John Vieau, and many others, this milestone is a major step toward a greener future.
In just the first hour, our panels produced 141 kWh of energy, and we're excited to continue powering the Food Bank sustainably. Special thanks to PV Squared for their generous donation of 15,750 meals!

I'm deeply touched by hearing your story. I already knew about it, but the power of your voice and the emotion you show give it new meaning. Ron and I are happy to support you. Much love and thanks to you.
Mismanagement of SNAP benefits by agencies that cut off benefits "just because they can" not because of any eligibility issues, and without notice to participants or authorized representatives, are a big problem. They need to listen also to the needs of seniors, and of people who are not of the internet age, so this watch party is a good idea. Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, no matter your ethnicity, you deserve food and housing assistance from the federal government. Thank you.
Thank you for all you do!
Thank you for the great work you do in repsonding to the critical needs of the Western MA community.
Wonderful video. Thank you? Could you disclose the program/app you used?
This is fantastic! So full of movement and energy. What a delight to watch. Thank you!
Why won't the music play when I watch the video? I just get the dialogue, but without the music.
