Weekend Buzz | Join People Helping People for Their Grand Re-Opening
Our food pantry has found a new (and much larger) home
Hello!
I hope you had a great week and are looking forward to just the kind of weekend you love - whether it’s action-packed or slow and peaceful.
Before I get started, one more plug for Newsies, Jr., which has its last show today at 2:00! You can get tickets here. Be there, or be square.
Today I have a super exciting community announcement for you: People Helping People is settled in its new location and are ready to open their doors to the community!
In case you’re not sure what People Helping People is, you should definitely listen to my interview with Julie Lewis, the Pantry Director over there. In short, they are our local food pantry and they help hundreds of individuals and families each week, ensuring folks who need it get the food security and basic needs they require. They are just one of many organizations in Burlington that work to help folks in need. Here’s a list I compiled, but I’m sure there are more organizations I’m not thinking of. So please, if you’ve got one to add, let me know!
Without further ado, a message from Jane McIninch,
So - come out and see what PHP has been up to. Maybe you can find a way to volunteer if you’re so inclined, or to get help if you need it, or both!
That’s all for me today. Enjoy the weekend!
Nicci
