🚨 January 17, 2023 - FUNDRAISER REOPENED! We got word from the Seeds of Hope volunteer coordinator that they have had some volunteers pull out of Tuesday's dinner service through March (life happens!). We are resuming our fundraising to support Worcester Families Feeding Families in covering these open dates!
 

Open Sky Community Services and Blessed Sacrament Church opened a temporary, winter shelter - Sowing Seeds of Hope - to house 60 unhoused residents from December 2022 until March 2023.

Worcester Families Feeding Families is providing breakfast and lunch to neighbors at the shelter, but dinners are still needed! If you want to contribute funds towards a dinner service, Worcester Families Feeding families will cook these meals. Every little bit helps - together, we can make this happen!  

Jessica Reyes-Lambert, the chef and founder of Worcester Families Feeding Families, steps up for our community in so many ways - read more about her work to provide cultural meals for displaced residents at Plumley Village early in December 2022.

If you are interested in COOKING a dinner for the shelter on one of the dates available (listed below) - please contact Brian at Open Sky: 774-276-1281. Brian and the team at Worcester Families Feeding Families are working together to track the dates still in need of dinners!
