The Woburn Community Fridge has been up and operating since November 2025!

Our mission is to to reduce food insecurity and food waste by providing free, dignified, and equitable access to fresh food through a publicly accessible community refrigerator.

Community Fridges are an investment in the community to help battle food insecurity which is consistently 15-20% of the population. That means about 8,000 residents of Woburn are reporting food insecurity. Recent changes to benefits programs will likely make this number soar.

Community Fridges are all around our region and Woburn hosts the newest fridge with the help of the City of Woburn and the United Methodist Church as our host.

Community Fridges rely on help from the community. It would be great to alleviate this need with your help! We need to build a shed around the refrigerator and have some money on hand to provide some food in the refrigerator as volunteer groups get set up and regular donations kick in.

$25 will help to feed five people or more! Just think what $100 could do! Any amount is helpful and we are grateful for your donations.

If you are seeing this and would like to help on a sporadic or regular basis with other volunteer needs (picking up allocated food from other donors, checking on freshness and supply, etc.) please reach out!
