Local Volunteer’s 50th Surprise Birthday Party Turns into Opportunity to Give
Local volunteer Erin Biggins’ family and friends wanted to celebrate her 50th birthday in a meaningful way that reflected her sense of kindness, giving and community. They organized a surprise birthday party, where breakfast items and cash donations of $5,000 were collected in honor of Erin to benefit Operation Hope.
Happy International Women’s Month 💪

Seeking Volunteers to Make 3 Dinners in April for Community Kitchen
Did you know that our Community Kitchen serves lunch and dinner Monday through Friday to feed approximately 50 guests per meal who come to us hungry? For many of our guests, this will be the only meal they eat that day.
We rely on so many generous volunteers in the community and surrounding area to prepare and donate these meals. We have a few holes in our April calendar and seek your help! We’re looking for volunteers to make dinners in their homes and deliver for our guests on April 11, 16 and 30. This is a fun volunteer opportunity for families, book clubs, friends, clubs, teams, Scouts, etc. Please send us an email here if you can help. We will respond with further details and answer any of your questions. Quick overview of what we need:
- Meal components to feed 50 people and be fully cooked upon drop off
-
Drop off at our Community Kitchen at 50 Nichols Street, Fairfield between 9:30am-3:00pm on day of assigned date
-
Meal components include a protein main, a starch, a vegetable, salad & dressing
-
Beverages (gallon jugs of tea & lemonade are always welcome)
