Tri-Valley Transit Collects 1,500 Pounds of Donations for Local Food Shelves in Vermont
Tri-Valley Transit (TVT) recently concluded its 50th-anniversary food drives, successfully collecting 1,500 pounds of food and nearly $650 in cash for local food shelves across Addison, Washington, Orange, and northern Windsor counties in Vermont. These drives were part of TVT's celebration of its 50 years of service. Donations included food, bottled water, toiletries, paper goods, and diapers. Specific food shelves that benefited include the Montpelier Community Market (formerly Montpelier Food Pantry), HOPE food shelf in Middlebury, and Randolph Area Food Shelf. The collections took place at various community events and locations, such as a 'Montpelier Alive' event, Middlebury Spooktacular, and local Hannaford and Shaw's stores. Jim Moulton, Executive Director of Tri-Valley Transit, expressed gratitude for the community's significant response, highlighting the meaningful difference these contributions will make for local families during the winter.
