Hello neighbors!
Have you heard of the Wall of Kindness movement in Iran? To help homeless in many cities around the country, people have put up hooks on designated walls where anyone who has extra warm clothing can leave it and anyone who needs it can pick it up. (read more about it at http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iran/12061140/Iranians-set-up-walls-of-[...]tml).
Given the needs in our own community, the ONE Good Deed Fund ( http://www.onegooddeedfund.org) is excited about the possibility of starting a Wall of Kindness here in the Old North End. We’re still in the very beginning planning stages of this project are looking for folks who would like to help organize (thank you to all who have been in touch after my first post a few weeks ago!). We’ve scheduled a community brainstorming meeting on Thursday, Feb. 11th from 6 – 7:30pm at ONE Arts Center at 72 N.
Champlain St. (on the corner of N. Champlain St. and Peru St.) and all welcome. If we have enough folks there, we can brainstorm other projects too, so bring your ideas!
Thanks and see you then,
Laura
