Lowell – The Merrimack Valley Food Bank (MVFB) is pleased to share that the organization has received a $10,000 donation from 100 Women Who Care – Greater Westford.

100 Women Who Care is a membership organization in which all members make a quarterly donation, the funds are combined to create a large donation pool, and members listen to presentations by three nominated nonprofit organizations and then vote on the recipient of the large donation.

MVFB was the winner of this quarter’s donation, following a presentation about the organization’s hunger relief programs by Executive Director Debbie Callery at 100 Women Who Care’s quarterly meeting on September 12th
.
“We are so grateful to receive this gift from such an impressive group of community-oriented, generous women,” Callery states, adding, “These funds will help families who are struggling to make ends meet, and will ensure that they don’t have to worry about whether they will have something to put on the table to feed their kids tonight.”
