Lesley Delivers with Class of 2011

Hi! I'm Sarah DiGiaimo and I led the Lesley Delivers last night. It was also the first day of Hunger and Homelessness Week and the kick-off to a nightly sandwich run. Last night's run was sponsored by the Class of 2011 and seven people from the class came to help. Everyone on the run last night was there for their first time. It was great to see new faces joining Lesley Delivers and more people who care about helping out the homeless in our community. We made 20 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and had a variety of snacks and candy to add to the bags. Unfortunately it was a very cold night, but we saw two different groups of people in Harvard Square and they seemed to be staying together, hopefully to keep warm. They were very grateful for the sandwiches and immediately started eating them. It was great to know that our sandwiches were going to those who needed them. Hopefully now that it is Spring, it will start to get warmer and make for more comfortable nights for those who have no shelter.
