We'd just like to take a moment to thank Marin Catholic High School for its support of our Tenderloin Turkey Drive for Fraternite Notre Dame. They are allowing us to distribute flyers and even use their parking lot as a donation pick up spot. (Details are on the flyer below.)
We are also receiving support from parents at Novato High School and are very appreciative of that. Our hope is that a Marin-based corporation will also take this on and we have reached out, but we don't want to put anyone in the spotlight until they feel it is a good fit for them.
Our crew of truck drivers, Sharon Miravalle, Nina McIsacc, Cassie Alciati, Lisa Winkler, Susan White are ready to come and pick up your donations on the 21st of December.
Last week, we were at Fraternite Notre Dame on Turk Street in San Francisco's Tenderloin District and accidentally ran into our partners, Food Runners, who were also there to help. The facility is modest, full of heart and needs our support. This is a soup kitchen where those that serve hundreds of meals literally sleep in the kitchen to rest up and do it all over the next day. It is a privilege to help them with their mission this holiday season.
December 21st is the day. Buy a second turkey, fill a bag with canned cranberries and other goodies and bring it to one of our donation stations. Or, if you happen to be with a generous corporation or neighborhood that can pull together a donation in the bay area, we will send a truck to you.
Here's our homespun flyer:
