Help Keep “The Fridge in the Square” Full — So Our Neighbors Don’t Go Hungry
In Harvard Square, there’s a simple idea that works: a community fridge and pantry outside First Parish Church where anyone can take what they need—no questions asked. We call it The Fridge in the Square. It’s run with heart by the Harvard Square Business Association (HSBA) alongside partners and volunteers, and it’s become a lifeline.
The need right now is outpacing our shelves. With reduced SNAP benefits and the holidays upon us, food insecurity is rising. As one church leader told the Boston Globe , “As soon as we fill it, it’s empty again.”
We’re launching this fundraiser to keep the Fridge full every day.
