The Beverly-Waterford Food Pantry, located at 307 Seventh St. in Beverly, has received a wide variety of donations from the community to help those in need.
As the pandemic has continued, the communities of Beverly, Waterford and Lowell have rallied and supported their local food pantries to help provide food in the community to those who need it.
Washington County Commissioner James Booth, who is a resident in the Lowell area, said the pandemic has helped bring out people’s need to want to help their neighbors during this difficult time.
“As far as what I see personally, I see churches making sure people are taken care of,” Booth said.

There are so many thanks that need to be expressed. I don’t know where to begin. The holidays are here and there is so much to be said to all of you. You are so generous with your contributions to the Beverly Waterford Food Pantry. Your donations are overwhelming. To the schools, churches, businesses, organizations and individuals, you have made it possible to feed those in our communities that need help. There is no way we can do this without you. You have shown this is very important to you.
The food drives and monetary donations are very important to us. The food pantry is a service that provides much needed help in Waterford and Watertown townships. We have been in operation almost 30 years and through the help given, we have been able to help some over a rough place in their life so they can move on. We are so grateful to St. Bernard Catholic Church in Beverly for everything they do to help us. They are so giving and accommodating. Their generosity is above and
