We are deeply grateful to the New Bedford Friends (Quakers) for their generous and timely gift of $15,000 to support Coastline’s Meals Program.

With the uncertainty surrounding SNAP benefits and the ongoing government shutdown, this donation will go directly toward ensuring that older adults in our community do not go hungry. The Friends shared that this decision reflects a long-standing tradition of caring for New Bedford residents in need, a legacy dating back to the early days of the city’s whaling community. Their thoughtful action continues that spirit of compassion and service.

On behalf of the many older adults who rely on Coastline’s meal programs each day, we thank the New Bedford Friends for their kindness and partnership in caring for our neighbors.
