The House concurrent resolution No. R-73 honors Megan Humphrey for her exceptional leadership of HANDS (Helping and Nurturing Diverse Seniors), a nonprofit organization in Chittenden County dedicated to addressing food insecurity among individuals aged 50 and older. Over her 25-year tenure, Humphrey transformed HANDS from a holiday-focused initiative providing Christmas dinners to a comprehensive program that distributes grocery gift cards, offers gardening programs, and conducts healthy eating workshops. During the 2024 holiday season alone, HANDS distributed approximately 1,700 grocery gift cards to seniors in need.

As Humphrey concludes her leadership role, she plans to continue her involvement with HANDS as a volunteer. The resolution expresses gratitude for her contributions and wishes her success in her future endeavors. Additionally, it directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to both Megan Humphrey and HANDS, recognizing her significant impact on the community and the lives of many seniors.
