In-Kind Donations

An incredible community of donors supports the work we do. These individuals and groups include:

Every Friday and Sunday night, Cambridge Rindge and Latin High School students from the group “Club Four” come in to cook a fresh, nutritious dinner.

On a typical night, we normally serve dinner given to us via Food for Free.

Every year, the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences donates financial contributions, gently used blankets, new socks, and non-perishable food items collected at their Giving Thanks event.

In addition, we receive food donations from the Harvard Square locations of Café Gato Rojo, Darwin’s, Market in the Square, Peet’s Coffee, Salt & Olive, and Wholefoods. Also, Dickson Bros supplies us with various goods.

Financial Support

Many local groups generously hold fundraisers on our behalf, including Border Cafe, Challah for Hunger at Harvard Hillel, Google’s Cambridge office, Memorial Church, and Peet’s Coffee.
