AND THAT'S WHY EVERYONE TAKING PART- IS THIS WEEK'S HOMETOWN HERO. THIS IS WHAT NEW HAMPSHIRE TACKLES HUNGER áUSUALLYá LOOKS LIKE. FANS AND PLAYERS, DONATING FOOD AT HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAMES. THIS YEAR - IT'S VIRTUAL - DONATIONS ARE ONLINE. BUT WHAT HASN'T CHANGED - ARE THE CARE AND GENEROSITY THAT FUEL THIS FOOD DRIVE. <JUDY LOFTUS, NASHUA SOUTH FOOD PANTRY 1:28 IF A FAMILY REACHES OUT TO THE SCHOOL AND SAYS THEY NEED HELP, GETTING THAT HELP TO THEM RIGHT AWAY IS SO IMPORTANT. 1:34> DONATIONS HELP YOUR LOCAL PANTRY SHOP FOR FOOD AT THE NEW HAMPSHIRE FOOD BANK. AT BOTH NASHUA NORTH AND SOUTH, THERE ARE FOOD PANTRIES RIGHT IN EACH HIGH SCHOOL - - WHERE STUDENTS IN NEED CAN GET BREAKFAST AND LUNCH, EVEN BRING HOME DINNER FOR THEIR FAMILIES. KEEPING IT STOCKED - EVE IN TOUGH TIMES - SHOWS THIS COMMUNITY WILL STAND TOGETHER. EVEN FROM A DISTANCE. <JUDY LOFTUS, NASHUA SOUTH FOOD PANTRY 6:06 WE WERE ABLE TO KIND OF COME TOGETHER, VIRTUALLY MAYBE, BUT WE STILL DID IT AND WE STILL MAINTAINED SOME PIECE OF WHAT OUR COMMUNITY, OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY IS ABOUT. ABOUT TAKING CARE OF EACH OTHER, AND MAKING SURE THAT NEEDS ARE MET. 6:21> STAFF AND STUDENT ATHLETES áACROSS NEW HAMPSHIRE- ARE STILL TRYING TO GET THE WORD OUT- THIS TIME ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THROUGH EMAIL. DOING WHATEVER THEY CAN TO HELP THOSE IN NEED- WHIL THE NEED IS SO GREAT. <MIKE DESILETS, BOW HS ATHLETIC DIRECTO 2:45 I THINK IT BRINGS A STRONGER SENSE OF COMMUNITY, OF BEING INVOLVED, THAT THEY'RE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN SOMETHING THAT HELPS OUT. SOME OF THE LESS FORTUNATE OR SOME OF THOSE IN NEED. AND IT'S JUST A GOOD CHARACTER BUILDER FOR THEM. 2:55> FOR EVERYONE PARTICIPATING IN OUR NEW HAMPSHIRE TACKLES HUNGER FOOD DRIVE - YOU ARE THIS WEEK'S HOMETOWN HERO. THERE IS STILL TIME TO CONTRIBUTE TO OUR "NEW HAMPSHIRE TACKLES HUNGER" DRIVE... FOR GRANITE STATE FOOD PAN
