Core Value: Proudly Serve Our Communities

About two weeks before Christmas, the Helping Acton Food Hamper Program was struggling to get donations so Colleen took up the cause. “It’s Christmas,” says Colleen, becoming emotional at the memory. “How can people be without food?” Colleen started fundraising in the store, collecting from both employees and customers. In a short time, she and her team raised $2,500 as well as $1,000 worth of food. Colleen also volunteered her time to put the hampers together and to get them out to families. “Without Colleen’s call to arms, the Hamper program would not have happened this year in Acton,” states the nomination letter. Colleen credits her co-workers and all of Acton for pulling together to make it happen. “I’m just proud to be part of this community.”
