FEEDING THE HUNGRY AND SHELTERING THE HOMELESS
The Dorothy Day Hospital House has been feeding the hungry and sheltering the homeless in the Danbury, Connecticut area since 1982. Located on Spring Street, the organization prepares breakfast each morning (Morning Glory Program) and hot meals in the late afternoon to sometimes over 100 people using food that has been donated from local groups. Guests may take sandwich bags with them when they leave. Dorothy Day is also used as a shelter from the cold during winter months.
WAYS TO HELP
There are three ways Saint Mary Parishioners help the Dorothy Day Soup Kitchen and Shelter: one Sunday a month Parishioners work at the soup kitchen cooking, serving, and greeting; another group makes the sandwiches in our Saint Mary School kitchen to take to Dorothy Day; and some volunteers also spend an overnight at the shelter. Regular volunteers and substitutes are always needed.
Dorothy Day House of Hospitality - Another Way to Volunteer!
Volunteers Needed- Dorothy Day
Dorothy Day House of Hospitality needs volunteers to make mixed salads the third Sunday of each month. Students that need service hours are welcome. For more information, please email mbreilly28@gmail.com.OUR MISSION
We are a community of people
Who care about our brothers and sisters
Providing love, food and rest.
Food in the form of a kitchen,
Rest in the form of a shelter, and
Love in the way we conduct ourselves.
We accomplish this by living God's word
Relying on our prayerful faith
To provide donations to fit our needs.
In the event that our bounty is so great,
We believe in sharing with other needy groups.
Please pray with us, that one day we will open our doors,
And no one will need our services
