UWTC has a variety of services we offer in the fight against hunger. We own and operate the following programs: Pearl Street Cupboard & Café at Park (Framingham), WHEAT Community Cupboard & Café (Clinton), and Marlborough Community Cupboard. Making sure things run smoothly and people’s needs are met every day takes a lot of teamwork. Meet one of our team players, Joe Mina!
