As people across Hampshire and Franklin Counties continue to recover, you can help make sure they have enough food. A gift today to the Amherst Survival Center will provide healthy meals to our neighbors struggling with food insecurity. Thank you so much for sharing what you can. Every gift counts!
If you’ve made a donation in the past, you may notice that our online donation form looks different. We recently changed to a new donation processing service that will save us time with donation entry, ensuring that even more of your gift goes right to helping our neighbors. This new service uses state of the art encryption to protect your information, and you can now make a secure one-time donation or recurring gift through your bank account as well as with a credit or debit card.
