GREENFIELD — The Salvation Army of Greenfield raised more than $5,000 on Friday during its “Fill the Plate” fundraising dinner.

On a monthly basis, The Salvation Army of Greenfield distributes more than 800 meals to residents who struggle with food insecurity.

“Our hardworking neighbors continue to struggle with food costs,” Lt. Paul Leslie, who oversees operations at The Salvation Army’s Greenfield location, said in a statement. “We’re seeing a growing number of people who rely on our Community Feeding Program’s breakfast and lunch programs every Monday through Friday, as well as our food pantry.”

In addition to raising money for the Community Feeding Program, Friday’s event at Terrazza Ristorante also honored Greenfield Cooperative Bank and its Northampton Cooperative Bank division. The bank has supported The Salvation Army for the past 15 years, namely through its holiday Angel Tree Program, where customers and employees can donate toys and clothing to fulfill gift requests by local children.

The bank’s support of the Angel Tree Program accounts for approximately 60% of all seasonal donations to The Salvation Army in Greenfield.

“Food is only one of many human needs,” Leslie said in a statement. “That is why The Salvation Army employs a whole-of-person approach, and attempts to address the mental, spiritual and emotional needs of our residents. We encourage anyone who needs a hand to reach out.”

Apart from the Community Feeding Program, the Greenfield Corps also offers numerous other services and programs, including rent and utility assistance, social and pastoral services, and a daytime shelter with shower and laundry facilities.
