Collection box for Peterborough Food Pantry
at Manhattan East
There will be a collection box for Peterborough Food Pantry at Manhattan East until November 23. Manhattan East donates $1 to the Food Pantry for each item donated.
The Peterborough Food Pantry is an all-volunteer 501(c)3 organization that provides emergency support for those who find themselves in times of special need and crisis.
They provide food for more than 300 families per month who come to them from 13 towns in our region.
