The wind storm and power outages have put many community members already struggling to put food on the table in an extremely difficult situation. As a result, many Vermonters are choosing between replacing the contents of their refrigerator or putting gas in their car or fuel in their home. Or even worse, these families are going without.

OPERATION RESTOCK, is a partnership effort of Capstone Community Action, the Vermont Foodbank and Mayor Thom and Karen Lauzon to provide emergency food assistance. We ask the community to help their neighbors in need by making a donation at fuelyourneighbors.org, or sending a gift to Capstone Community Action, attn.: Operation Restock, 20 Gable Place, Barre, VT 05641.

Through Capstone Community Action’s food shelf, 20 Gable Place, Barre, those who have lost food as a result of power outages, can restock their refrigerators. Initial “restock” hours are Friday and Monday from 5-7pm. If you’re in need, but can’t make those times, please call 802-479-1053. Capstone will continue to provide these opportunities to meet the need.

Please support this effort with a donation at fuelyourneighbors.org.
