As founder of the Cambridge Weekend Backpack Program, which sends meals home with hundreds of food insecure students every week, I have a proven track record of taking concrete action that produces results.
As your City Councillor, I am committed to Cambridge by empowering our community to make this City better for everyone. I love working, living, and raising my children here, and I am honored to be serving the residents of Cambridge.
Re-Elect Alanna #1 on November 5th!
