Community Outreach Services (COS) is so grateful for the continued support of the voters of Kennebunkport. Twice a year, on Election Day, the town holds a “Stuff the Bus” Food Drive at the polls. These drives go a long way towards stocking our shelves and providing funds for our programs. On November 3, Election Day, Kennebunkport voters donated 610 pounds of food and $1,143 in cash. It was a wonderful way to begin the holiday season. We especially appreciate the volunteers from the Kennebunkport Health Council, the Kennebunkport Recreation Department and the Town of Kennebunkport for all their help running the food drive. To all who participated, you’re the best! Thank you.
COS is celebrating 25 years in operation serving the towns of Kennebunkport, Kennebunk, and Arundel. Starting as a non-perishable food pantry in November of 1990, we have expanded to include a perishable food pantry, a school snack program, a fuel assistance program, an emergency needs program, a voucher program with Kennebunk Hannaford, and Holiday food baskets. We are currently working with Food 4 Thought providing food for the weekend to qualifying children in RSU 21. If you want to know more about us, please visit our webpage at www.coskennebunks.org or follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/coskennebunks.
Without the volunteer and financial support from the community, we would not be able to help those in our community who need that extra help to get them through a difficult time in their lives. Please consider helping us during this time of year when there are so many needs.
