Serve a Meal at SPY
Calling all SALAmanders!
One of SALA's favorite charity partners, Safe Place for Youth, provides vital support to youth experiencing homelessness, was a tremendous success. We've been able to serve quite a few meals to their over 80 youth clients with a smile and we're excited to do this again.
We'll purchase, prepare and serve dinner on Thur, Sept 27th. They've requested 8 volunteers to help serve lunch to about 65 clients.
We can start shopping and meal preparation Wednesday night at my place and bring everything to SPY a couple blocks away on Thursday for the dinner, and we usually finish within 3 hours (when volunteers are welcome to go through the food line, or if we prepared just enough we can go out to a nearby restaurant).
If anyone can't be there in person but would like to help with a donation (groceries for this event cost $200-$300), please Paypal to [email protected] and include the note "SPY" or mail to: Sunday Assembly LA, 12575 Beatrice St., LA, CA 90066. If you're using snail-mail, please email us to let us know so we can budget for the day accordingly.
Thank you for your help! SPY relies on sponsored meals to keep getting vital services to at-risk youth, and we appreciate your help in reaching those in need among this vulnerable population.
