Can You Help Coordinate Lunches for the

St. Stephen’s B-SAFE Summer Camp Training

Week

 

We need two more coordinators!


The Church of the Redeemer would like to be responsible for the lunches for the training week for the St. Stephen’s B-SAFE Summer Camp (for low income inner city children in Boston). In order to do this, we need Redeemer volunteers! 

  
Volunteer Coordinator Requirements:

 

1)  Help plan and organize lunch for 3 days; June 28 – June 30 (if we have 3 coordinators, each coordinator can be responsible for one day) for approximately 150 people attending the B-SAFE training camp at the Epiphany School in Dorchester.
 

2) Coordinate and organize Redeemer volunteers for the 3 days of lunches. 


 
       Please contact Laura Patton (laurated@rcn.com or 617-232-5175) if you can help or have any questions or need further information.   St. Stephen’s B-SAFE Summer Camp program relies heavily on volunteers and we need your help.  B-SAFE is a wonderful program for low income inner city children and it is rewarding opportunity to help with B-SAFE!  If you are interested in helping with the B-SAFE lunches during training week please let us know as soon as possible so we know if there is an interest by the parish to support this effort- thank you!

Please speak with one of the staff in the weeks before or after the sessions and we will remove any picture of you from our image library when we receive the proofs.
