Norwich A drive-thru mobile food pantry will be held from 3:30 to 5 p.m. Thursday at the Rose City Senior Center, 8 Mahan Drive, Norwich, in memory of Jason Vincent, the president of the Norwich Community Development Corp., who died Dec. 30.
The Gemma E. Moran United Way/Labor Food Center will host the drive, sponsored by Mayor Peter Nystrom and Linda Nystrom, friends and family members of Vincent, who will be volunteering at the food pantry. The sponsors raised $2,250 for the food pantry.
The goal is to provide food to 400 recipients. One package of food will be provided to each vehicle, but drivers can pick up food for additional families, Nystrom said. No registration, residency or paperwork is required.
