Stoughton Business Holding Food Pantry Drive

Drop off any canned goods or non-perishable items at Malcolm & Parsons Insurance Agency's downtown Stoughton office (770 Washington St.) during the months of July and August and Malcolm & Parsons will match the donation.

All proceeds and donations will be distributed to the two local food pantries in Stoughton.

"These are the months when the food pantries are in need the most," Jack Raeke of Malcolm & Parsons wrote in an email.  "We have a kiddie Pool set up in our office and hope to fill it with can goods and non perishables. As we did last year Malcolm and Parsons has agreed to match the value of all the donations! THE POOL HAS A LOT MORE ROOM."
