b'The name \\u201cDutchess Outreach\\u201d does not tell much about the organization\\u2019s mission, which is to meet the basic needs of low-income people when no other resources are readily available. To this end Dutchess Outreach runs the major food pantry in Dutchess County; a traveling \\u201cgreen market\\u201d for fresh fruits and vegetables; the Lunch Box, which provides healthy hot lunches and dinners; and a winter coat drive.
