News from Social Outreach
The Second Sunday collection this Sunday, November 8, will go to the Hingham Food Pantry in honor and in memory of Susan Kiernan, its founder and director for 35 years. Second Parish has been the home of the HFP since Sue Kiernan and a small group of women identified the need for food assistance for families in Hingham, and looked for a space to house a Food Pantry. Second Parish offered a dedicated space, and the rest is history. Now staffed by more than 100 volunteers, the HFP serves more than 160 families in Hingham who face food insecurity. These dedicated volunteers continue Sue’s legacy and carry her mission forward.
Please give generously as you are able.
