Chestnut Hill Square is collecting much needed food and personal care items to benefit The Newton Food Pantry now through November 19, 2023.

Suggested food items include cereal, hearty soups, oatmeal, pasta and more. In addition, the Newton Food Pantry needs personal care items including deodorant, toothpaste and individually packaged toothbrushes, shampoo/conditioner, and more.
