​Yes - The New England Patriots scored the Super Bowl win this year but a week later, the Gilford Community Church scored an outstanding win for GILFORD GOT LUNCH with their First Annual  “SOUP-ER BOWL”.   Scott Hodsdon, Director of the Gilford Youth Center, challenged the congregation to bring in cans of soups which would be collected the following Sunday.  A total of 215 cans were collected and the winner was GILFORD GOT LUNCH!  Thanks to the generous donation from the church members the cans of soups will provide 215 meals for children in the program.

The 8th grade students of Gilford Middle School recently donated $186.25 to Gilford Got Lunch. The class participated in a program called The Trout Project.  This project involves the students coming up with a business plan and a product to sell.  This year the students made, marketed, and sold cookies and dog biscuits. They decided that the funds raised should go to Gilford Got Lunch Program.  These funds will feed more than one child for the entire summer. We would like to say a belated THANK YOU to these students and GMS staff for their generous community support.
Gilford High School students from Steve O'Riordans business class raised  and donated $1300 to GGL! We are very THANKFUL for their generosity!
