Franklin Freedge Food signup

Pickups will occur on Wednesdays and Fridays shortly before school dismissal. We are seeking one volunteer per shift.

Questions? Contact: gvoysey at gmail dot com , nisha dot karna at icloud dot com, or juliahuston at yahoo dot com!

On the day:
- There will be a 15-minute pickup window at Franklin on Wednesdays between 12:05 and 12:20 and Fridays between 2:25 and 2:40.
- You may park in the faculty parking lot and enter the cafeteria through Door 14.
- If noone is present to let you in at the door, call the main office at 617-559-9500 and someone will let you in.
- You will take the food from the cafeteria (expected to be one or two boxes) and deliver it to the Newton Community Freedge at 420 Watertown Street.
- It is fine to bring children to the Freedge, as they can help unpack the boxes of food and stock the refrigerator and pantry.




The Freedge is a 24/7 refrigerator and pantry that provides free food and personal care products to anyone who needs them.
