Food Distribution

We continue to work with United Community & Family Services to provide the monthly food distribution at the Preston Senior Center. The program is open to residents and non-residents alike.

Beginning in the month of January, there will be invited agency guests who will hand out information concerning their particular agency. For example, one month it may be staff from TVCCA Energy Assistance Program, possibly a local health care agency or hospital to provide
handouts which you may find useful. This is an important way of getting the word out of services/benefits which individuals may not be familiar with.

We hope to continue our monthly distributions throughout the winter months (within reason,
blizzards are definitely out). Our January distribution will be held on Friday, January 6th from 10:00 – 11:00 a.m. February distribution will be held on Friday, February 3rd
.
Special note of thanks goes out to UC&FS and their staff for their continued support which they bring to Preston residents. I would be remiss if I didn’t also recognize the support from our own hard working crew including Cathy Brosnan, Sandra Allyn-Gauthier plus always ready to provide last-minute emergency coverage star Amy Brosnan!! Thanks to one and all.
