Dear Patients and Families,

As we move into the holiday season, we know that many families in our community are feeling added stress—especially with recent limitations to SNAP benefits. Our practice will be collecting food and essential items to support our local food pantries, and we’d love your help in making a positive impact.

We encourage families to involve their children in the donation process. Just as you visit us to stay healthy, this is a meaningful way for children to see how we can help keep others healthy too — by making sure everyone in our community has access to nourishing food.

Items We’re Collecting:

  • Canned and boxed food items
  • Non-perishable snacks, cereals, and grains
  • Condiments and spices
  • Coffee and tea
  • Flour and sugar
  • Toiletries (soap, shampoo, toothpaste, deodorant, menstrual products)
  • Dog and cat food

Drop-Off Locations:

You may bring donations to any of our office locations during office hours:

Westwood Office
89 Forbes Blvd, Westwood, MA 02090

Mansfield Office
541 High Street, Suite 1000A, Mansfield, MA 02048

North Easton Office
115 Main Street, North Easton, MA 02356

Drop-Off Hours:

Monday–Thursday: 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Friday: 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.

Every contribution—big or small—helps support families right here in our community. Thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity. Together, we can make this season a little brighter and healthier for our neighbors.
