TBS Night at the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter
Join folks from TBS for a fun and meaningful evening of volunteering at the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter (66 Winthrop St., Cambridge). We will be taking the evening shift. According to the shelter, evening shift is "a relaxed time to visit with guests as they prepare for bed. It's usually very quiet and a great opportunity for some wonderful conversations. Help is also often needed in the kitchen to clean-up after dinner and prepare plates of food to hand out at the door." This is a great way to get to know TBS people as well as folks from beyond our shul's doors.
*Please note that the shelter can only handle 6 volunteers per shift, so the coordinator will be accepting the first 5 to respond to this message!* Email Jill Smith at shelter (at) tremontstreetshul (dot) org for more information and/or to sign up.
Further information about the shelter, including volunteering opportunities if you would like to sign up for another shift this winter, can be found at: http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~hshs/
