This year’s Thanksgiving Food Drive held by the Old Lyme Police Department and Lymes’ Youth Service Bureau (LYSB) was extremely successful. Pictured above taking a a brief break from sorting the huge amount of food donated by Lyme and Old Lyme residents during the Thanksgiving Food Drive are LYSB Director Mary Seidner (center), LYSB staff member Arleen Sharp (left) and LYSB community volunteer Leslie Massa. Pictured below, Arleen and Leslie continue the good work.
All the food donated is distributed to families in need. Food will also be given to stock the mini-pantries at Lymes’ Senior Center and the Town of Old Lyme Social Services.
After local needs are met, all remaining food is given to Shoreline Soup Kitchens.
