Winter Garden assisting less fortunate during pandemic
The city of Winter Garden has been partnering with nonprofits to make sure the less fortunate receive food during the pandemic.
A Story from the West Orange Times & Observer
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected everyone in some way, but there are people who are struggling more than others through this crisis.
The city of Winter Garden has stepped up to assist its residents who need it the most — those living in east Winter Garden and those living on the streets.
City officials have teamed with Healthy West Orange, Polis Institute in Orlando, several churches and a number of other nonprofits for the collection and distribution of food to low-income residents and the homeless folks cared for by Matthew’s Hope.
Multiple city of Winter Garden employees are working together to make sure residents’ needs are met. A list of close to 300 families has been compiled with the help of Timothy Rodgers, president of the East Winter Garden Neighborhood Alliance; Pastor Byron Stevenson of West Orlando Christian Church; and others in the community.
