Cummings Visits Ampersand Pantry Project
Mayor Kelly Burk and the Democratic candidates for Leesburg Town Council were invited by Leesburg attorney Peter Burnett to visit the Ampersand Pantry Project on Market Street.  The project is a non-profit helping to feed our most vulnerable citizens during the current health crisis.  Mr. Burnett and his team of wonderful volunteers have handed out over 29,000 meals.  The Ampersand Pantry Project has partnered with local non-profits, like Mobile Hope, and local restaurants to prepare meals and groceries for those in need.  The team of volunteers were incredible to see in action.  They all were working hard to handout lunches and other grocery items, as well as diapers and feminine hygiene products in a way that protected the volunteers and the folks receiving the items.  

The Ampersand Pantry Project is driven by donations and volunteer help.  It's an amazing operation that is making the difference to residents of Leesburg and Loudoun County everyday.  Thank you to all the volunteers.  If you'd like more information on how to volunteer or contribute to help keep the pantry operating, click here.
