If you or someone you know is affected by the government shutdown, the Gorham School Department can help! We offer BackPack Program services to students in all schools, free of charge, on a long or short-term basis. Gorham’s BackPack Program provides students with easy-to-prepare food to eat during weekends and a daily snack while at school. All food is non-perishable and provided to students free of charge. Simply email Heather Whitaker at heather.whitaker@gorhamschools.org with any questions or to sign-up. No further paperwork is necessary. The Gorham Food Pantry that is located next to St. Anne's Parish on Main Street (Across from Narragansett School) is also offering help to individuals or families living in Gorham that are being affected by the government shutdown.
