Belmont Helps: volunteers, food assistance & more!
Belmont Helps has been working to alleviate food insecurity in the local community and respond to the pressing needs of our neighbors since March 2020.

Our mission is to provide compassionate help to neighbors in need so that all Belmont residents feel supported during struggles that arise in their lives. We believe that supporting vulnerable community members helps to create a healthier, stronger and more caring community.

With the generosity of donors, Belmont Helps provides about $20,000 of food support annually to help Belmont residents.

Belmont Helps is part of the Belmont Food Collaborative, Inc., a 501(c)(3) focused on food stability, also the parent organization of the Belmont Farmers Market and Belmont Composts. Thanks so much for your support, it takes a village!

Julie Wu is fundraising
Save Chenery Upper Elementary School's Composting Program!
Belmont Composts!, a project of the Belmont Food Collaborative, is raising money to fund the composting program at the Chenery Upper Elementary School. The school funds that had sustained this robust program since 2017 are no longer available and the program is being suspended midyear.

The CUE is the only school in Belmont that composts cafeteria food waste. The program's success lies in the hard work and dedication of science teacher Ben Ligon and a large team of enthusiastic volunteers, including 260 student Trash Bashers and 22 parents. 7 50-gallon bins of compost are picked up per week.

Compost pickup by Black Earth Compost costs $1064 per 4 weeks. For the remainder of this year we would need to raise 6 x $1,064 = $6,384.

Belmont Composts! is helping the DPW apply for a grant for future academic years. For now, let's keep this successful program going for the rest of the year! Let's not let our students' hard work and enthusiasm for saving the Earth go to waste.

Funds from this fundraiser will be donated to the school district for the purpose of funding Chenery's compost pick-up.
