Suffield Community Aid reports 90 Easter baskets, higher pantry use and larger camperships
Summary
Lauren Marino said Community Aid distributed 90 spring/Easter baskets, reported increasing food pantry usage, and said camperships have been increased to help children attend summer camp; rental rebate support will continue into the fall.
Lauren Marino of Suffield Community Aid told the commission that “90 spring/Easter baskets were given to families,” and thanked volunteers for assembling the items. She said food pantry usage is trending up and rental rebates will continue to the fall, while camperships have increased in value to help children attend summer camp.
Marino credited volunteers (Ms. Salerno and team) for the basket distribution and noted registration and program information is available through Suffield Community Aid channels. The report reflected rising demand for food assistance as seasonal programs ramp up into summer.
