Lynn Rotary Partners with Lynn Police and GLSS to distribute food

 

The Greater Lynn Senior Services (GLSS) monthly Brown Bag/Mobile Market Program continues to be a wonderful example of what can happen when community organizations work together.

For several years, members of the Rotary Club of Lynn have joined the Lynn Police Department’s CBD Bike Patrol Team and GLSS staff to help distribute fresh food and groceries to local seniors and community members. The program has become an important part of our ongoing commitment to addressing food insecurity in Lynn, and an opportunity for Rotarians to work side by side with some terrific community partners.

We would especially like to recognize Officer Tom Morley, who has been a dedicated part of this partnership and a familiar face at our GLSS distributions. As Officer Morley prepares for retirement, the Rotary Club of Lynn wishes him all the best in this next chapter.

Of course, retirement from the Lynn Police Department doesn’t have to mean retirement from mornings at GLSS! We hope we will continue to see Tom at future distributions, perhaps just without the uniform. And Tom, there is always a seat waiting for you at the Rotary Club of Lynn!
