MARSHFIELD, MA — When COVID-19 put a stop to food donations at the Marshfield Food Pantry, 14-year-old Ellie Ahern told her mom she wanted to raise some money for the pantry, where she usually volunteers.
“We were hoping for like, $200, at most, and then we got $1,500 and we were like oh my god,” said Ellie.
Her mom, Patty, then posted their mission to Facebook. Before they knew it, the snowball was rolling — and the money kept coming in.
