SUMMARY:Fabric of Community Blanket & Towel Drive to Benefit Welcome Home
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, October 4 from 10am-1pm bring your new or gently used blankets and towels (all sizes and designs are welcome!) to The Street and help us fill the Mark’s Moving and Storage Truck with essentials to support the work of Welcome Home. Welcome Home is a home goods pantry in West Newton that collects new and gently used items to share with those in need. With each blanket and towel donation\, enter for the chance to win a raffle basket from The Street Chestnut Hill. Plus\, enjoy freebies from your favorite brands like Shake Shack\, The Half Cookie\, Polkadog Bakery\, and more. Help Mark’s Moving and Storage and Welcome Home turn housing into homes. \nThe truck will be parked on the pond side of 27 Boylston Street. \nAbout Welcome Home \nWelcome Home provides individuals and families experiencing hardship with basic household items they need to live with dignity. Welcome Home was founded in 2016 when Julie Plaut Mahoney and Mindy Peckler saw an opportunity to bridge the gap between older adults downsizing and purging usable home goods\, and families in need. In 2019\, the organization became a 501(c)(3). Staffed by volunteers\, Welcome Home accepts home goods from anyone wishing to donate and keep items out of landfills. These goods are cleaned\, shelved\, and made available to people struggling to meet their basic needs. We do not require documentation\, referrals\, or fees. Women make up the majority of the requests we receive\, most of whom care for children\, parents\, spouses\, siblings and neighbors. The goods one client receives therefore serve to benefit many\, bolstering health\, self- esteem and a sense of well-being. It is our vision to see that everyone who contacts Welcome Home receives the essential kitchen\, bath\, bedding\, and decorative items they need to turn any living situation into home.
