We’re collecting non-parishables for our neighbors in need.
We’ve made it as easy as we can. You can either drop off items or we’ll be happy to come by your house to collect. Just let us know where and when. And we’ve added a third option: Gift cards for our local farmstand at North of Boston. (Contact us at mail@boxforddems.org for more information.)
