On September 17th, the South Portland–Cape Elizabeth Rotary Club proudly presented a $35,113 check to the South Portland Food Cupboard (SPFC) to fund a walk-in refrigeration unit at their new facility. This upgrade will expand access, enable pre-orders, and safely store fresh food for families in need.
The idea sparked last spring when Rotarian Tony Wagner identified the need. With support from then-President Nancy Irving, Community Service Director Sari Greene, and a $10,000 commitment from the South Portland Housing Authority (SPHA), momentum grew. Ten Rotary clubs, a District 7780 grant and individual donors joined forces, raising the additional $25,113.
This is Rotary in action—Service Above Self, collaboration across clubs, and a shared commitment to fighting hunger.
