The Concord Free Public Library (CFPL) is introducing a new, monthly program for elementary school children brought to you in partnership by the Library and Open Table, a local food pantry serving Concord and surrounding communities. This hands-on program will take place Wednesday, May 25 and Wednesday, June 29 from 3pm-4pm in the Children’s Activity Room at the CFPL’s Main Branch. We will use different stories and activities each month to help educate children and facilitate discussion on food insecurity. Children will decorate a bag and fill it with food provided by Open Table in support of the Open Table Kids’ Bags program. Kids who attend will also learn about Open Table and the positive impact their organization makes for children and others in the community. We know that Kids are Hungry to Help!

Food Donations – (Optional) Have your child bring a food donation. Shopping with your child is another great way to involve them.

In-Need – If you or someone you know needs food assistance, please leave a message at 978-369-2275 or email info@opentable.org.
