WHIPPANY, N.J., May 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Suburban Propane Partners, L.P. (NYSE: SPH), a nationwide distributor of propane, renewable propane, fuel oil and related products and services, as well as a marketer of natural gas and electricity and an investor in low carbon fuel alternatives, today provided a catered Mother’s Day celebration to the residents and staff at Abby’s House. Suburban Propane provided more than 120 hot meals to the non-profit organization and also stocked the pantry with the organization’s wish list of staples and non-perishable items. Mayor Joseph Petty was on hand and provided tickets to upcoming WooSox games at the new Polar Park.

"We are incredibly grateful for the support of Suburban Propane who is just as passionate about helping homeless and low-income women and children as we are," said Stephanie Page, executive director of Abby’s House. "Access to hot and nutritious meals and grocery items can be difficult to come by for a woman on a limited income. The generosity from Suburban Propane helps to ease some of these worries for women so they can focus on securing or maintaining housing and building a more hopeful life for themselves and their families. We thank Suburban Propane for recognizing women at Abby’s House in this special way for the Mother’s Day holiday."

The catered meal and pantry items were sourced from local restaurant, Peppercorn’s Grille & Tavern, who delivered and set up the brunch at Abby’s House, as well as at additional affiliated Abby’s House locations. 104.5 XLO was the media partner for the event, providing donated airtime to further raise awareness of the valuable mission of Abby’s House.

"Abby’s House is one of the truly historic service agencies in the City of Worcester. Since 1976, they have helped tens of thousands of women in dangerous and life-threatening situations," said Mayor Joseph M. Petty. "I want to thank the sponsors at Suburban Propane and Peppercorn’s for providing over one-hundred meals this Mother’s Day to Abby’s House and making this day special for their clients."

"On behalf of Suburban Propane, we’d like to thank Mayor Petty, and we’re honored to give back to the local community of Worcester, MA through our SuburbanCares platform. We are proud to have the opportunity to join forces with Abby’s House, WXLO-FM, and Peppercorn’s, to fill their pantry with much needed supplies, and to provide catered meals for the residents and staff to make their Mother’s Day special," said Nandini Sankara, Spokesperson for Suburban Propane.
