Groton Food Locker Receives United Way Grant for Hygiene Products

The Food Locker will stock up on diapers and personal hygiene items for weather-related and other disasters.

The United Way’s “Our Communities United…Hurricane Sandy and Her Aftermath” donated $3,000 to the Groton Food Locker recently. 

The money will be used to “stockpile household supplies,” including personal hygiene products, diapers, etc which will be available in the event of future weather related or other disasters that affect Groton. 

Groton Human Services submitted the proposal on behalf of the food locker, which is located in their basement, although Mystic Congregational Church oversees its finances.
