Help Elaine raise money

Hello!

It has become an annual tradition for us to take part in this run, and this year we are once again supporting The Common Table's important work (see below!). 

Any amount that you can donate is really appreciated. 

Thank you,

Elaine

About The Common Table:

The Common Table Drop-In Program is a grassroots community effort run out of Church of the Redeemer, which relies on volunteers and donors. We are open for both indoor and outside service from Monday to Friday. Indoors, we offer two healthy meals a day, daily toiletry supplies, basic health care services and housing referrals. We also provide social and creative activities, psychotherapy, support groups and more.

In response to COVID-19, we began to offer outside services such as meals, washrooms and phone access. We also began going out on the streets beyond the church building with carts, seeking others who might need help. Many were served this way, and so we will continue to make available both the outside meals and the outreach carts.

We connect with 100 to 140 people each day, through meals and the meeting of other basic physical necessities. Even more significantly, we offer a place of peace, where stories are shared, voices are heard, and relationships are established. In short, Common Table is a community to belong to.

We are grateful for our neighbourhood partners, donors, advocates and volunteers, who make our program possible.
