We hope September has been treating you well so far! We also hope we get to see your smiling face soon! :)
SEPTEMBER MEAL OPPORTUNITIES
Here are the dates for this month's regularly scheduled serving opps:
- Men's Facility Serve - Thursday, 9/12 (402 N St. Louis) - We're thinking something cajun. Maybe? Anyway - I'll be traveling for work and Don will be at this alone. And we'll need help to pull it off. So please, please, please come out and help. :)
- Women's Serve - Friday, 9/20 - (3330 W Carrol Ave) We tried some delicious sub sandwiches last month that the ladies seemed to really enjoy. Have suggestions for this month? Just let me know! :)
SAVE THE DATE!
Breakthrough's Annual Benefit Dinner is scheduled for Friday, October 18th. The theme for this year is Rise and Create Change. It's always a great event and to sweeten the deal, Don and I will probably be hosting a table - so you can come share a meal with none of us in the kitchen! :) Get more info on this yea'rs Annual Benefit here.
Don & I liked to introduce folks to Breakthrough through the Manna (or meal-serving) opportunities. I say "introduce" because Breakthrough is a pretty robust organization and they have lots of ways to get involved in all of the different things they do - like homeless intervention, fresh market, job readiness training and even kids programs. Feel free to come out to one of their Behind the Scenes Tours to learn more about the many ways that Breakthrough is reaching out to folks living on the west side of Chicago. Tours are on the first Monday of each month. For more information or to register for the tour,click here.
Thanks, everyone! Hope to see you soon!
Love and Hugs!
