PITTSFIELD, Mass. – Greylock Insurance Agency recently made a $250 donation to the Breaking Bread Kitchen.
The donation was matched with a $500 donation from the Arbella Insurance Foundation’s “Let’s Drive Out Hunger” initiative. The $750 check was presented by Jessica Havens, GIA Account Manager, to Paul Mulholland, Co-Chair, Breaking Bread Kitchen.
Breaking Bread is a partnership of eight South County churches and groups that volunteer on Thursday evenings to serve free hot meals to 60 to 80 community residents at the Sheffield American Legion.
“Organizations such as the Breaking Bread Kitchen do great work by providing meals and fellowship for deserving residents," Sharon MacEachern, AVP, GIA Insurance Operations said. "GIA is always happy to support our community, and very appreciative for the matching donation given by the Arbella Foundation to help Breaking Bread continue their efforts.”
Mulholland said he is grateful for the donations.
The funds will be put to good use buying food and supplies for the Thursday night dinners that are free to all who would like to attend," he said.
Now in its seventh year, Arbella’s “Let’s Drive Out Hunger” initiative collects contributions from Arbella’s nearly 500 partner independent agents and matches each donation on a two-to-one basis up to $500 for emergency food programs, soup kitchens, food pantries, and homeless shelters throughout New England.
