How To Donate To Wayland's Coronavirus Relief Fund

The fund is being used to buy and deliver groceries to Wayland residents in need.

WAYLAND, MA — The town of Wayland has set up a relief fund to help deliver groceries to local residents during the coronavirus pandemic — and donating to the fund is as easy as paying your taxes.

The town is accepting donations to the fund through City Hall Systems, the online portal where residents pay taxes and other fees. All you have to do (after selecting to pay the town of Wayland) is select "donation" as your bill type.

The Board of Selectmen set up the relief fund on April 10. Money from the fund will be used to buy groceries from either the Wayland Stop & Shop or Donelan's. The groceries will then be delivered to residents and families who need them.
