With the influx of working Americans facing food insecurity, the grants will help support food pantries and ensure that thousands are fed for the holiday season and the New Year. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are thousands of working Americans who can&#8217;t afford to pay their rent and buy groceries, so they forfeit food,&#8221; said Elizabeth K. Warn, President of the TD Charitable Foundation and Senior Vice President of Community Relations for TD Bank. &#8220;The Foundation believes that it is our responsibility to support our communities, especially in times of need, so our partnership with food pantries across our footprint is extremely important.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The following food pantries, listed by state, received grants:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Connecticut:<\/b> Foodshare, Inc. \u2013 Bloomfield <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Connecticut:<\/b> Food Bank of Lower Fairfield \u2013 Stamford <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Connecticut:<\/b> Colchester Youth &amp; Social Services \u2013 Colchester <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Connecticut:<\/b> Connecticut Food Bank, Inc. \u2013 New Haven <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Delaware:<\/b> Food Bank of Delaware, Inc. \u2013 Newark <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Florida:<\/b> Bread of the Mighty Food Bank \u2013 Gainesville <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Florida:<\/b> Community Food Bank of Citrus County \u2013 Crystal River <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Florida:<\/b> First Step Food Bank \u2013 Ocala <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Florida: <\/b>Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida-Brevard Branch \u2013 West Melbourne <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Florida: <\/b>Treasure Coast Food Bank, Inc. \u2013 Fort Pierce <\/li>\n<li><b unselectable=\"on\">Florida: <\/b>Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc.
