On July 7th, 2020 the Rotary Club of Colchester-Milton presented the Colchester Community Food Shelf with a check for $4,840.00 from the Club’s Fill The Truck For The Food Shelf campaign. Club member John Abry presented the check to the president of the food shelf, Marcia Devino. Marcia stated that “We are extremely thankful for the continued support of the Colchester-Milton Rotary and this donation will supply a whole month worth of food supplies for the food shelf.”
This is the 3rd year the Colchester-Milton Rotary Club has held the “Fill The Truck” event collecting food and cash donations for the Colchester, Milton and Grand Isle food shelves. Due to the Covid 19 pandemic this year’s event was ‘virtual’ with all donations submitted online and by far the most collected totaling over $9,2,00.00
The Colchester-Milton Rotary Club would like to publicly thank all who donated. Club member John Abry stated “We are truly amazed by the outpouring of support from our community during these challenging times and impressed with the level of generosity of those who donated.”
Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves. We welcome new members to our group, People of Action.
