Gifts That Give
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Gifts that Give auction and party, whether as a donor, a buyer, a bidder, or party attendee. We sent a check to A Place to Turn for $2070.05 and a check to Framingham Community Farm for $327.75. We could not have done this without you! Beyond raising funds for the important work these two groups do in feeding the most vulnerable in our communities, you also brought joy and love to the donors and the buyers of gifts as they shared their talents and treasures. In this time of distancing, you helped us feel connected—to each other, to creativity, to meaningful giving, to our values, to a brighter future. We’re so grateful.
Presents for Pathways
The generous donations from this congregation enabled the Board of Wider Mission to give Pathways Shelter in Framingham gift cards worth $1700. This enabled the families at Pathways to purchase holiday gifts that met their needs, and was so generous the staff was able to extend support to other nearby shelters as well. Thank you all for stepping up to help families in need during this very difficult year.
