Volunteer at Thanksgiving Dinner for the Homeless

  • Saint Lucy's Church 432 Gifford Street Syracuse, NY, 13204 United States (map)

UPDATE: Volunteers should arrive at Saint Lucy’s at 8:30 am, and are being asked to wear a white shirt and black pants (or as close as you have).

Join us to volunteer at the Annual We Rise Above the Streets Thanksgiving Dinner on November 23rd, the Saturday before Thanksgiving. It's a wonderful event—a great way to kick off the holiday season!

Last year everyone had fun, both volunteers and the folks we were serving. There was turkey and all the fixings, tons of desserts, a DJ, haricuts, and clothing, coats, and shoes. A really festive atmosphere, and so appreciated by the guests.

Volunteers are being asked to sign up at https://www.streetsrecoveryoutreach.org/team. You aren’t required to bring food, but if you can let them know what you’re planning to bring, it will help them plan. Where it asks if you're part of a group, you can put Central New York Humanist Association.

Please also shoot us an email at cnyhumanists@gmail.com to let us know you plan to come, so we can pass on any updates to you.

See you there!

**We want to assure everyone that, while this event is being held at a church, it is not sponsored by the church, and there will be no proselytizing, promoting of religion, or discriminating against anyone for any reason. ALL are welcome!**
