Town of Groveland is proud to announce it was named as one of a dozen Community Champions by the the Seacoast Food Providers Network, a regional network of food pantries and community kitchens.

The Groveland Council on Aging was one of a dozen agencies honored on Tuesday, Oct. 25, at a breakfast held at the Blue Ocean Event Center in Salisbury. 

Over the last 10 years, the Groveland Council on Aging and other honorees have worked to coordinate holiday programs, cross-promote programs through flyers, and shared resources with creative ideas for food distribution across the 12 cities and towns the network operates in. 

Groveland Council on Aging Assistant Director Nisha Burke and Outreach Coordinator Maria Yagual were in attendance at the breakfast to accept the honor. 

“We are grateful to Seacoast Food Providers for the work that they do, and honored to be recognized,” said Assistant Director Burke. “The Council on Aging looks forward to working with the seniors and the entire community to combat food insecurity.”
