Some of you may remember when we honored our long-time volunteer, Anne Francisco back during The Community Kitchen's Annual Meeting.

Well, following that meeting, The Kraft Family and Patriots Foundation reached out to inform us that Anne had been selected as one of the 26 recipients of the Myra Kraft Community MVP Award! 🏆

The Kraft family and the New England Patriots Foundation have been recognizing volunteers for going above and beyond to give back to their communities through the Myra Kraft Community MVP Awards program since 1998.

Here's Anne at Gillette Stadium with her award.

Thank you for showing up for The Community Kitchen all these years, Anne. ❤️
