common cathedral Seeks Food Donations

"it's better to be busy - and feel useful right now!" - Carol G. 

Our unhoused neighbors are in need during these uncertain times. You can help! common cathedral invites us to donate items out of which their staff will then build "to-go" bag lunches. Sign up to donate here: 
https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0c4aafa829aaf94-common.
You can sign up to donate 50 sandwiches, 50 pieces of fruit, and/or 50 granola bars. Drop-off is 8AM-9AM at Emmanuel Episcopal Church - 15 Newbury Street on the day for which you sign up. The bag lunches will be used every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for the next few weeks.

Carol and Emanuel Genovese made and delivered sandwiches on Friday 3/20 at 8AM with great success. What did this look like for them to do?

• buy sandwich supplies at low cost at BJ's.
• clean home kitchen counter before making sandwiches.
• wear sanitary gloves and make 50 sandwiches.
• deliver the food right to the door of Emmanuel Episcopal where Reverends Mary and Laura gladly receive them.
• (Simple donations of boxes of granola bars or bags of soft fruit are just as highly welcomed as well.)

Send questions to Amanda Grant-Rose, 
​cc Executive Director, at amanda@commoncathedral.org.

The act of giving is often also an act of receiving. For Carol and Emanuel, donating sandwiches is an opportunity to both give and receive positive impact in their lives and in the lives of our unhoused neighbors.
