Thank You, Massport

While on the subject of helping those who are in need, we wish to take this opportunity to thank the Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport) and its dynamic Chief Executive Officer, Lisa Wieland, for once again lending a hand to Massport’s neighbors in East Boston, South Boston, Winthrop, and Worcester through their annual food drive to help feed families this holiday season. Massport employees donated profusely to the drive that benefits several community organizations, including Crossroads Family Center in East Boston, East Boston Community Soup Kitchen, South Boston Community Health Center Food Pantry, Winthrop Community Food Pantry, and Veterans Inc. Food Pantry in Worcester. These organizations serve hundreds of local residents each month and provide critical assistance and support year-round. Massport has long served as an economic engine for the entire Massachusetts economy and we are pleased to see that Massport recognizes its obligation to serve the communities most impacted by its operations
