I took some photos and spent time with Paul Galante of Medway, who runs the Food Pantry at Mahan Circle. I learned a ton about how the food is distributed and obtained. Paul is dedicated and passionate about it all. The community is lucky not only to have one but two Food Pantries, the second is the Medway Village Food Pantry. Each benefit from hard work of volunteers and donations from many local businesses. The Pantry at Mahan Circle is stocked, clean and inviting, but is always looking for more items and support. Check out the details below and please reach out to Paul if you can help or have any questions.
