Beth Stafford
Executive Director/CEO
Dare to Dream?
MACC fulfills my cherished aspiration as a social worker. Since its inception in 1973, the MACC model envisioned building partnerships to break cycles of poverty in its community. MACC does not need to grow in size in Manchester, rather it needs to be emulated in other towns to create a network of collaborative help across our state.
Shannon Baldassario
Assistant Executive Director
When you cannot control what’s happening, challenge yourself to control the way you respond. Our attitudes, while sometimes indifferent, are often positive or negative. They play a big part in life. We always have a choice as to what attitude we want to embody. Every day I smile when exchanging greetings as it influences seeing everything in a positive light.
Chef Ferdinand Cruz
Community Kitchen Head Chef
MCC is back at it with us here at MACC this week. Student of the week goes out to Wesley Greer-Laureano. This young Chef brought the energy and skill set that we just needed today. Wesley assisted in prep, helped during our lunch service and after tidying up the kitchen he was the last man standing! Cheers and great job!
Phil Leggett
Pantry Manager
At the Emergency Food Pantry, we receive all kinds of donations. While we appreciate your donations, we ask that you do not drop donations off after hours. You can bring them during our hours of operation at 460 Main St. Walk up the ramp, ring the pantry buzzer and a volunteer will assist you. Thank you for your compliance.
Patti Thurlow
Operations Manager
With the stress of having a baby, worrying about clothing your newborn should not be something that makes you worry, but it is. With the growing need in our community for baby clothes, ESPECIALLY newborn – 18 months, MACC’s Community Threads Thrift Shoppe NEEDS YOUR HELP! Please donate your gently used baby clothes and help ease a new parent’s worries!
Timothy Bohr
Community Outreach and Emergency Services Manager
Not surprising, homelessness is frequently tied to income vs housing availability. The struggle to pay for housing and other basic necessities such as food, health care and child care becomes unsustainable. With housing frequently being the most expensive of costs, it is the first to be lost in the quick escalation from housed to homeless. Support affordable housing for all.
