Last week State Senator Sal DiDomenico attended The Greater Boston Food Bank’s official launch of the Takeda Center for Community Health & Nutrition in Boston. This Center will create greater access to nutritious and medically tailored food for communities throughout Eastern Massachusetts. The Takeda Center was made possible by a four-year, $4 million grant from Takeda, the largest-ever donation in the food bank’s history. Senator DiDomenico has been a longtime supporter of The Greater Boston Food Bank, and this contribution combined with funding he secures each year will ensure that more food-insecure individuals and families will be reached.
“This extraordinary accomplishment demonstrates the commitment to health, nutrition equity, and community wellness, by both the Food Bank and Takeda,” said Senator DiDomenico.
