A lighthouse is a building, tower or other structure that emits light that helps to guide and bring one safely home. For the clients of the Saco Food Pantry, these are the names given their lighthouses: Women’s Educational and Industrial Union, Brooklyn’s Bakery, Shaw’s, Vacationland Bowling, Saco Valley Auto Care, Trinity Episcopal Church, Hannaford, Cornerstone Methodist Church, Bible and United Baptist Church, Leeward Landing in York, Laurie Mygatt, Mike Hopkins, Marion Orr, Ann Marie Kenney, Milton and Joan Victor, Robert and Maryllyn Fairfield, North Saco Congregational Church UCC, Lawrence and Joyce Poulin, Daniel and Jo Ann Allen, Jessica Peck, Most Holy Trinity/Good Shepherd Parish, Mary Rachel Bernier, Ron and Rachel Bolduc, Annette Chapter 184 of the Eastern Star, Alison Westcott, Grace Lashua, Dyana Anastasoff, John and Betty Wuesthoff, Joseph and Doris Buonomo, First Parish Women’s Fellowship, Barbara Prentiss, Dorothy Ashley, Ralph and Beverly Loring, Nancy Tarbox, Saco Book Discussion Group, Sylvia Searle, Ann King, Valerie Scanlon, Rae Clark, Dr. and Mrs. Ronald Bissell, Margret Grant, Altrusa Club of Biddeford-Saco, Grace Communion International, Joy Elsner, Germaine Dumas, Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control, Lucille Reed, Al and Bernadette Coulombe, Dorothy Jarry, Lois Samuels, Cardullo Properties and our anonymous donors.

We also take a moment to honor the memory of Priscilla Knight, Jason Woodman and Clayton Fernald. All here mentioned have or still, by their support, provided a guiding light to a safe harbor for those in need. For the pantry board and the volunteers who work in your stead, I say, thank you and God bless.
