Blessing Bags for the Homeless: Community Night

Common Street Spiritual Center is honored to host Blessing Bags for the Homeless, organized by Grace Walker, for the project's very first in-person fundraiser. Join us for a fun community night that helps neighbors in need stay warm this winter. Four years ago, Blessing Bags started with just 20 backpacks. Last winter, thanks to community support, 100 bags packed with essentials were delivered across 5 cities. This evening will help the mission keep growing. **What to expect** Come hungry. Community members are pitching in to provide pasta with meatballs, macaroni and cheese, and veggie trays, with water, coffee, and tea. DJ Ashley Yates will bring the grooves and beats. There will also be interactive games and a raffle, with prizes donated by The Hive in downtown Natick and other local businesses and artists. **How you can support** There is no entry fee. Instead, we are asking for cash or Venmo donations (@Grace-Walker-70) and bulk items to fill Blessing Bags for the coming winter: new winter hats and gloves, socks, toiletries, feminine products, and snacks. **Where** The Sanctuary at Common Street Spiritual Center, 13 Common Street, Natick. Use the front entrance on Common Street. Together, we can make a difference. We hope to see you there! More info: https://commonstreet.org/calendar
