Fellowship Place celebrated Earth Day on Saturday, April 23 by participating in the Greater Dwight Development Corporation’s annual neighborhood clean-up. About 15 clients worked with staff to pick up trash on Dwight Street, Elm Street, and University Place. What a wonderful way to give back to the community and enjoy a beautiful Spring day outdoors, Fellowship style!
A special shout-out to Yale University students Helia Gagnon and Michael Sanchez for organizing two income tax preparation clinics on the Fellowship Place campus. Income taxes were prepared for free for about 50 individuals, many of whom were first-time income tax filers. The students are part of the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program (VITA)–a much appreciated and valuable service for Fellowship Place clients.
The Jamie Hulley Arts Foundation sponsors the weekly class “Music and Movement,” which gives Fellowship Place clients the opportunity to learn and practice a variety of dance styles. The class helps to sharpen focus and attention skills, and promotes exercise for the body and mind.
Fellowship Place thanks our supporters for their donations of gift cards, blankets, winter gear, and toiletries, which were distributed at the agency’s annual Holiday Celebration. A wonderful time was enjoyed by all!
Employees from Kolmar Americas shared the spirit of the Holiday Season with Fellowship Place today. They collected hundreds of gifts as well as toiletries and warm blankets for distribution to our clients now and throughout the year. We are very proud and fortunate to include Kolmar Americas as one of our corporate partners.
