SPRINGFIELD — Recognizing the financial challenges many Western Massachusetts residents are facing this holiday season, the food access program Rachel’s Table is providing 1,310 turkeys to 29 agencies that serve the hungry — more than double what was distributed last year.
“We are so grateful that for many years, thousands of residents in Western Mass have enjoyed Thanksgiving meals because of the generosity of the Thanksgiving Fund of Rachel’s Table, which was established by Daydie Hochberg on her 70th birthday,” explained Associate Director Sarah Maniaci. “Daydie’s friends, family and the community continue to carry out her wish to make Thanksgiving a little easier for our hungry neighbors.”
