BENNINGTON, Vt. — Southwestern Vermont Medical Center connected with Wendy Nolan, resources coordinator with the state Department for Children and Families, to deliver festive holiday meal ingredients to share with foster families in Bennington.
Staff from departments organization-wide gathered nine boxes packed with hams, turkeys, stuffing mix, canned vegetables, breakfast items, pie-making ingredients, cookie mixes, and much more. The boxes will be delivered to nine families through DCF
"Some of the families we work with can't really afford to have holiday dinners," Nolan said. "I am so grateful to the staff of SVMC for making these donations. The food will help foster families enjoy a really abundant and joyful holiday season."
"This is such a feel-good project," Renal Services Director Ruth Rudnick said. "Every department I asked was eager to jump in an collect items they thought would help foster families celebrate the holidays."
