The Hudson Independent published a lengthy article in their December 2025 issue on food insecurity in Westchester County, mentioning the efforts of community groups to help fill the growing void. Front and center comes our very own Pam Mitchell, thusly:
“Meanwhile, many residents in the area, such as Pam Mitchell of Sleepy Hollow, are lending a hand and bagging groceries for those in need.
As a volunteer with the Community Food Pantry of Sleepy Hollow/Tarrytown, Mitchell noticed there was a shortage of grocery bags for families when they came to collect their food.
Mitchell, a resident at the Kendal on Hudson senior living community, connected with other women to collect bags that could be reused and redistributed at the pantry. At one dropoff, more than 100 bags were donated.”
Yay, Pam!
