The Cape Cod Hunger Network is pleased to announce that they have provided over $63,000 in support of local Cape Cod organizations. From Bourne to Provincetown and the islands the Hunger Network was able to fund critical work across the network. The gifts support everything from acquiring a new walk in freezer in sandwich , to providing funds to support Sustainable Cape work in Provincetown. Funding went to established organizations like Wecan, and to new start ups like The Truro Community Kitchen. We want to thank all of the Cape Cod Hunger Network donors who helped to make these gifts possible. The Hunger Network is hoping to provide another round of funding during the summer months.
