Gloucester Times: Coastal Windows & Exteriors Showcases “Freedom from Want” with Turkey Donation, Featured in The Gloucester Times

Coastal Windows & Exteriors proudly continued its Gloucester community support for the 9th consecutive year. This effort was highlighted in The Gloucester Times. Since 2022, requests for food assistance have doubled. In response, Coastal Windows & Exteriors doubled their turkey donations from last year. They donated 50 turkeys and 25 Thanksgiving fixin’ bags to North Shore residents. This was done through partnerships with The Open Door Food Pantry and Beverly Bootstraps. The donations addressed the rising need for food assistance. Ultimately, they helped local families enjoy a warm Thanksgiving meal.
Coastal commits to giving back to the Gloucester community through this annual initiative. Inspired by Norman Rockwell’s Freedom from Want, Coastal partnered with Henry’s Market to purchase turkeys, which they distributed to families in need. They provided Beverly Bootstraps with 25 Thanksgiving fixin’ bags containing staple items for holiday meals. The Open Door’s CEO, Julie LaFontaine, praised Coastal’s dedication to alleviating food insecurity and emphasized the importance of community partnerships during challenging times.
