Culture, Diversity

<p> KEEP PANTRY FULL</p> <p> Editors, Vineyard Gazette:</p> <p> I work at the food pantry as a volunteer. I now get it about the hardship on Island that justifies support for the food pantry. It&#8217;s real to me, now I see that it&#8217;s more that just putting some groceries in the purple boxes in the supermarket. The need is real. I see the elderly, infirm, single mothers, mentally incapacitated, unemployed people come in, and they all need to eat.</p>

On behalf of the board of directors of Adult and Community Education, and the cultural festival planning committee, many thanks to the generous supporters of the fall cultural festival. Your generosity helped create an amazing evening celebrating Island diversity and culture and supports the new Winter/Spring 2012 catalog of courses now available online and in print at schools and libraries.

We deeply appreciate your support and thanks for joining us again this year.
