In the Spirit of Thanksgiving: Keep Westborough's Food Pantry in Mind
There are people around you in need. A reminder about how and where give to your local pantry.
WESTBOROUGH, MA—Before you load up your cart with stuffing, turkey, cranberry sauce, vegetables and pies, remember there are people in your own area who are struggling to put food on the table every day.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, Patch is reminding residents about the Westborough Food Pantry, where you can donate or volunteer to help Westborough residents.
"We try to offer a well-rounded array of foods for their weekly selection and offer, as well, some basic non-food items such as paper products and personal care products on a rotation basis," said the board on its website.
