Serve the City Food Drive
As part of our call to see heaven come to Boston, we want to serve our city and meet the tangible needs of our neighbors. We will be collecting food donations to distribute to Haley House, a local nonprofit that operates a food pantry in the South End and distributes food to students in need at Boston Public Schools. Please take a look at the list below, and bring food any Sunday before November 23!
