This week, members of the Rotary Club of Salem volunteered to provide dinner at LifeBridge, a nonprofit organization located in downtown Salem. LifeBridge North Shore is committed to supporting homeless and vulnerable individuals in the local community by establishing access to valuable resources that promote physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional wellbeing.

Believing in the fundamental worth and dignity of every person, LifeBridge aims to offer shelter, housing, meals, and drop-in services to those in need. Through these services, they strive to provide their clients with acceptance, structure, opportunity, and the tools to make healthy decisions tailored to their individual circumstances and requirements.

The Rotary Club volunteers cooked and served a hearty meal of chili and corn pudding for the LifeBridge clients. This was part of the club's ongoing partnership and commitment to support the important work of LifeBridge. The Rotarians plan to return to LifeBridge in January to prepare another delicious community meal for those accessing the organization's vital resources and programming.

 

ONE:  You can make a personal donation or encourage your club’s Board of Directors financially to support our Mission. Checks can be sent to our Rotaplast Treasurer payable for Rotaplast:  Eagle Bank, Attn: Stephen Miliotis, 350 Broadway, Everett, MA 02151.  

 

TWO: You can sign up to volunteer on this mission as we still have a few open positions available.  The mission departs from Boston to San Francisco on March 8 and returns to San Francisco on March 23.  You must travel with the group on this portion of the trip so that the equipment boxes can be counted as your second piece of luggage. This is done as a group booking through Rotaplast and will cost approximately $1,200. 

 

For more information on the event and for ways to donate, contact Mission Chair, Terry Rezendes Curran at terrycurran7930@gmail.com.
