Stronger Together
What We’re Doing, What We Need
As a write this, we are in the midst of an unprecedented (in this country, in my lifetime) response to a novel virus. At Greater Park Hill Community, Inc., that means we are planning to serve more food to the community than normal. Things are already buzzing around here, so I will keep this brief.
We’ve modified our operations to keep our employees, volunteers, and clients safe and to ensure we are complying with all health and safety recommendations. More information about our response plan is available at greaterparkhill.org.
We are so fortunate to have already, in these first few days, received a great influx of food and financial donations. THANK YOU, neighbors, for taking care of one another. You all give me great hope that we’ll get through this and come out stronger on the other side.
If you’d like to make a donation to our food programs, financial donations can be made on our website at greaterparkhill.org/join-us/donate. If you’d like to drop off food (Mondays and Wednesdays 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 2823 Fairfax St.), here is a list of items we currently need:
• Canned fruit
• Cereal (hot and cold)
• Coffee and tea
• Ensure drinks
• Hearty soups/stews
• Individually packaged snacks (crackers, fruit snacks, etc.)
• Packaged meals (like ramen or ravioli)
• Canned meat (tuna, chicken)
• Tomato sauce and canned tomatoes
• Baking and cooking basics (flour, sugar, oils, mixes)
GPHC, Inc. is a volunteer and donor-based organization. A big thank you to our donors and volunteers this past month. We couldn’t do it without you!
