MLK Day 2021 VS COVID-19

1/18/2021

0 Comments

 
And the winner is? ...MLK day, of course! Thanks to Alpha Kappa Alpha's generous meal donation, our Members celebrated Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's day on a full stomach! 

Granted, some changes had to be made. Because of COVID-19, for example, our Members were spread around the entire building, to allow for social distancing. Lunch was served in to-go container, and the biggest change: our friends at Alpha Kappa Alpha were unable to hang out with us and help serve the food. 

They were here in spirit, though, and we truly are thankful for their 19th year of generosity. 

Thank you for being Repairers of the Breach!

Gobble Till You Wobble!

Despite that horrible COVID-19 pandemic, we have a lot to be thankful for this year. For instance, the Herker family, in association with Advent Lutheran, donated 300 sleeping bags to us this year. These selfless people have been keeping the homeless warm for 16 years now! 

In addition, this year's Thanksgiving Feast has been sponsored by: A. Chavis Transportation, Ayesha Love Collection, Big Daddy's Barbeque, DJRC Entertainment, Hey Puddin, Taste Kitchen and Cocktails, and the Smoke House. 

We are thankful for all our volunteers, staff, donors, and Members.

​From all of us, we hope you have a safe and happy holiday!

Thanks to Carol Ryan & volunteers, this year's rummage sale was another success. Household items were among the goodies that were very affordable. Actually, they were all the same price... free! Thank you for making our Members' day a little brighter.

Ethan, of troop 530, has organized a clothing drive for us! He sent out over 1,000 flyers in his neighborhood, and, using his leadership skills, created an assembly line of volunteers to sort, fold, and package men's and women's clothing!

Thank you for all your hard work, Ethan!

It's been a while since we blogged ...SARS-CoV-2 (aka, COVID-19) has kept us busy. For safety, we still haven't opened up our bubbler to the Members and staff, so this means that we depend upon bottles of water to...

HYDRATE THE HOMELESS!

Thank you to Hydrate the Homeless for the two pallets of water we now have! Our Members are grateful for this life-saving gift, and we are as well. ​

Special thank you to Girl Scout Troop 20099 from the Holy Hill Area School District in Richfield. They gathered so many items we could use like: gloves, cleaning supplies, jeans, t-shirts and more! 

It's because of our wonderful community that we can do so much with so little, especially during these times when COVID-19 has presented many challenges to us. Thank you to you all, and thank you, girls! You are all truly Repairers of the Breach!

A Memorable Memorial Day

5/25/2020

0 Comments

 
As we thank those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom, we also thank our Members who are vets, the volunteers from St. Joseph's in Grafton, and the community as a whole for making our Memorial Day Picnic possible... despite the challenges COVID-19 has presented to us.

Donning facial masks and gloves, the volunteers and staff packed up burgers, brats, chicken, potato chips, potato salad, homemade cookies, soda, and water in carryout containers for the Members. Even Mother Nature pitched in by keeping the rain away.

May you all have a safe and wonderful holiday! ​
