February 11, 2025 is Angel Cioffi's Day to combat food-insecurity:
Today, Paul Cioffi honors Angel Cioffi as today’s "Buy a Day; Make a Difference" Honoree in celebration of her birthday!
We are thrilled to share that Angel has been an incredible volunteer for SFC, dedicating countless hours to our cause and making a real difference in the lives of those we serve. But Angel’s impact goes beyond SFC—she tirelessly contributes to our community as a whole. Whether it's lending a helping hand to those in need or organizing efforts to improve her neighborhood, her selflessness and dedication are felt throughout. We are so fortunate to have her as part of our family here at SFC.
Today, Paul made this donation not only to celebrate Angel’s unwavering commitment to SFC, but also to remind her of how deeply she is appreciated by all of us. Angel’s work is invaluable, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she does.
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Angel! Because of your hard work and dedication, 30 of our food-insecure neighbors will have a meal today. We hope you feel as special as you make others feel every day!

Springfield Family Center is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that serves our food insecure neighbors in the greater Springfield area. Many in our community struggle with knowing where their next meal will come from:
-2 in 5 Vermonters are food insecure
-Springfield in particular suffers from a poverty rate that is 47% higher than Vermont's average.
During the last fiscal year, SFC helped alleviate this problem by providing the community with:
-30,282 prepared meals
-701 visits to the food shelf serving 1361 people cumulatively
-Distributed 9,826 loaves of bread, fresh produce to 6,146 people and fresh dairy to 1,216 people cumulatively
- 1,180 pounds of food feeding 140 families cumulatively through a food pantry drop off program at local schools
-102 holiday themed boxes feeding over 300 people
In addition, SFC partners with local organizations such as Senior Solutions and Springfield Area Adult Day Program to develop programs that target particular populations with nutritional needs.
In April 2024, SFC relocated to a more efficient space in downtown Springfield, allowing for improved meal preparation and service. The new location is centrally located and accessible by public transportation, making it easier for those in need to access resources.
YOU CAN HELP BY BUYING A MEAL FOR A NEIGHBOR
For $10 you can “buy” an entire prepared meal for one person or enough ingredients from our food shelf to provide an entire meal for a household consisting of 2-3 people.
