Fresh Lunches for Bridges Outreach

This month, The Fortnightly Club is supporting Bridges Outreach, a Summit-based nonprofit whose mission is to end homelessness through street outreach and intensive case management. Together, we’ll prepare fresh lunch bags to be distributed directly to people experiencing homelessness in the Newark area.

We are collecting the supplies needed for this project. Please sign up for the complete list of items and to contribute, if possible.

We will be assembling the Fresh Lunch bags with non-perishable items after our Club meeting on Wednesday, November 18. 

Then, please feel free to join us at Twin Maples on Thursday, November 19, at 12:00 p.m. (after mah jongg) to make turkey and cheese and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches that will go into the lunch bags. 

Please bring your donations to our November 18 meeting, or drop them off in advance at the Fortnightly Club. Label all donations “Bridges Fresh Lunches.” 

If you drop off items early, please email Elizabeth so we can keep track of what has been collected.



Thank you for helping us provide fresh meals and a little extra care to our neighbors in need!
