As you may be aware, the federal government shutdown has led to an interruption in food benefit resources. In the event that anyone needs food, or has the ability to donate resources, here is a list of Granby's local organizations who provide food resources:
- Granby Food Pantry, 860-269-0613
- Waste Not, Want Not Community Kitchen, 860-550-2219
- Mobile Foodshare, www.foodshare.org
- Hope 4 Life Food Pantry, 860-653-3308
- Open Cupboard Pantry, 860-653-4537
To donate to a specific organization in Granby, please contact them directly, or contact the Visiting Nurse + Hospice of Litchfield Country, 860-379-8561.
Our local Granby resources have done a great job supporting our residents, but there are also needs in the greater Hartford community. If you would like to donate to those outside our local community, there is a collection box inside Granby Town Hall. View the priority donation items list. Donations support families in the greater Hartford area. If you would prefer to give financially, you can visit the website of the Regional Food Access Coalition.
