2020 Holiday Food Delivery Project
Submitted by Darielle Walsh
On Saturday, December 19, members of the Westfield Optimist Club and Rotary Club again demonstrated their commitment to community service by providing holiday food to Westfield area families in need and several local food pantries. Due to current health and safety concerns and restrictions, food gift cards were distributed to families instead of food baskets.
The Holiday Food delivery has been an annual community service project for the Optimist Club of Westfield for the past 30 years. This project is made possible through the generosity and funding from the Optimist Club and the Rotary Club of Westfield and contributions from members and friends.
The involvement of volunteers from both the Optimist and Rotary organizations contribute to the success of the annual project, which reflects the goals of both organizations in helping those in need and assisting members of our community. The time and efforts of volunteers speaks volumes about caring for the neediest among us. This annual project is an illustration of what Optimists and Rotarians do to help the community.
