The House of Bread
has expanded feeding services to include 4 Kids Café sites (Asylum
Hill Boys and Girls Club, South West-Chandler Street Boys and Girls
Club, Parkville Boys and Girls Club and Northwest Boys and Girls
Club). We serve approximately 450 kids ranging in age from six to
twelve, a nutritious and balanced meal each evening.
Sister Kristen
Johnsen, a Sister of St. Joseph and a qualified chef, is the
full-time sister who is directly involved with the program. She
plans the menu, prepares the meals with volunteer assistance and
delivers them to the Boys and Girls Club. Sister Kristen also gives
the children instruction on proper nutrition. In addition to Sister
Kristen, the programs growth has enabled us to employ full time
staff, a FEAST program graduate, in addition to volunteers.
If you are
interested in volunteering or hearing more about this program,
please contact Sister Maureen Faenza at The House of Bread
(860-549-4188).
