Help Feed Our Neighbors in Need in December – Shop in Store or On Amazon
We are deeply fortunate to be the recipient of quite a few food drives recently held however our neighbors in need still have to put food on the table and especially through the holidays and beyond. We are looking for some very basic food items to help stock our Food Pantry and feed over 800 local families and individuals! Regular sized items (not bulk) appreciated. Drop off at our pantry M-F, 9am-4:30pm at 636 Old Post Road; there’s a drop off area to the left of the building. Please ring the bell and someone will greet you. Please do not leave donations unattended and when the office is closed. Monetary donations are always welcome so we can purchase exactly what we need for our clients, donate here. Or, if easier, simply purchase from our Amazon wish list here and your donation will be shipped directly to the pantry. Thank you!

Friend of Operation Hope Raises Money By Cycling from Fairfield to Boston
Mission complete! Our friend Matt Rommens cycled his way to Boston yesterday for Operation Hope! Matt wanted to channel his cycling passion into something greater, something for the community. As a Fairfield resident, Matt is aware of Operation Hope’s longtime work to end hunger and homelessness. He decided to raise money to support our work by riding his bike 160 miles from Fairfield to Boston 
Even though Matt’s ride is done, please consider donating to his cause here. Thank you Matt for helping our neighbors in need in this unique way, we are grateful for friends like you!
