The Rotary Club of Newton's efforts to feed needy families, which help to keep restaurant workers employed, have attracted lots of local media coverage.
The Newton club's three food-assistance projects are:
- Nourishing Newton - a joint effort with local food pantries and restaurants that is directed by the Newton-Needham Regional Chamber of Commerce.
- Newton Food Pantry's Newton Community Freedge.
- The Boston Globe's Project Takeout.
