Lunenburg County

Since it became established in 2003, the Lunenburg County office has been defined by its hands-on, community-first approach, building on strong local partnerships. It has invested in programs like the Senior Safety Program, YMCA Youth Programs, St. Vincent de Paul, and Chester Community Wheels — addressing long-term gaps across the county.

Beyond funding, the team has created and delivered its own initiatives in direct response to local needs: technology access programs, free Bridgewater Transit Passes, Coats for Kids, Bikes for Kids, and more. Each one of these unique initiatives was designed with the purpose of removing barriers and opening doors for those who need it most.
