The Liz Murphy Open Hand Food Pantry provides food and other necessities to Haverhill residents. Rule of thumb if schools are closed the pantry is closed.
Our goal is to provide these essentials to all community members who are in need thanks to generous donations and our outstanding volunteers. The pantry will be closed if a Federal holiday falls on Tuesday. In addition, the pantry will close due to inclement weather (heavy snow, sleet) for the safety of our staff and clients (walking and driving).
The Liz Murphy Open Hand Pantry sends a heartfelt congratulations to Dan Butkovich for completing the PMC challenge and raising funds for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. If anyone wanted to donate but didn't get to before the race, it's not too late. Below is Dan's link. Please consider making a donation to continue research in finding a cure fir all cancers.
