The Sunderland Public Library has placed a box of non-perishable foods in the lobby for anyone who needs help due to recent SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefit reductions. Throughout November 2025, visitors may take what they need or donate sealed, non-perishable items. Location: Sunderland Public Library lobby, Sunderland, MA. This effort supports neighbors experiencing food insecurity and invites community members to contribute.
Local food resources: Amherst Survival Center; Franklin Area Survival Center (Turners Falls); Food Bank of Western Massachusetts Mobile Food Bank; South County Senior Center; Center for Self-Reliance (Greenfield).
Stop by the library in November 2025 to take food or donate items. For broader food assistance options, visit the Food Finder: https://www.413cares.org/food
