On Sunday September 10th, at 3:00 PM a coalition of groups that provide services to the homeless will have a clothing drive at St. Peter’s Parish Hall, Memorial Drive, Plymouth. It coincides with a community meal that is provided by St. Peters.
Recently there has been a need for heavier jackets, sweatshirts, blankets and backpacks, which volunteers from PeopleCorp and the Salvation Army have been providing. We are still more than two months away from any temporary winter shelters opening in Plymouth, and many of the homeless sleep out in the open, or in tents in the woods, with inadequate protection from the elements.
Feel free to bring items to St. Peters yourself on Sunday, or arrange with Eric to get them to him in the days beforehand, and he will deliver them.
