Dear Laura
 
Howdee!  The big news this month is the upcoming "Social Justice Arts Night" on Friday, the 27th.  See middle column below for info.  If you haven't yet signed up or put it on your calendar, please do so.   And please come say 'Hi' to me at the event!     
 
In gratitude: to May Mah, who collects toiletries and towels from the hotel where she works and to Shirley who, every Friday, helps put together little toiletry kits that we hand out to our guests; to the Celebrate Foundation for their $2,000 donation; to all those orgs and individuals who have donated items to the auction; and to all of the donors and volunteers who walk with the homeless through this Project.

Peace and all good - and see you on the 27th! Laura

Meet Sheila Kogan



Sheila has been volunteering with the Gubbio Project as an Assistant Hospitality Monitor for over a year.  Every Monday from 10-1 we can count on Sheila to be a presence in the church, lending an ear, sweeping the floor, engaging in lively debate, and wiping down the pews.
 
Of her time she says: "I get more than I give.  I came with great trepidation, but now feel a tremendous connection with the guests and the workers."  She has written a manuscript about her time here entitled "52 Stories from the Street."
