Congratulations Merrimack Valley Food Bank, Inc. and thank you for all you do for the City of Lowell, MA - Government and beyond!
On Thursday, the Merrimack Valley Food Bank celebrated our relocation to 1703 Middlesex Street with a joy-filled ribbon cutting ceremony. The spring snowstorm could not keep away more than 150 people who came out to celebrate MVFB’s long-awaited new home. Attendees included current and former MVFB board members and staff, representatives from MVFB’s many community partners, elected officials, MVFB volunteers, and some of our organization’s donors.
Speakers at the ribbon cutting included Executive Director Debbie Callery, Board President and Founder Jimmy Good, Board V.P Danielle McFadden, Congresswoman Lori Trahan, State Senator Ed Kennedy, Mayor Daniel P. Rourke , and City ManagerTom Golden. A common theme ran through their words as they all touched on the importance of partnerships with various community organizations and leaders to the success of MVFB, and the ongoing importance of MVFB’s work and vision.
We also wanted to thank Celebrity Chef Ming Tsai and his team, who provided food during the event, as well as donating over 1,000 MingsBings for MVFB to distribute to our clients!
