Today Mission For Hope partnered with Good Hope, the Christian Jeep Association to distribute over 200 new backpacks and blankets to the homeless in Boston. The backpacks had 17 items which included new hats, gloves, socks, water, juice, snacks, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, washclothes, luggage tags, pens and Bibles. Also distributed were handmade hat and jackets.  We hadn’t done outreach in Boston since January because of safety concerns. Since January conditions have gotten so much worse. It’s some of the worst conditions I’ve seen in this country since I’ve been doing outreach with my Jeep the last three years. Please pray that things change in Boston and more services and shelters are made available for the poor, sick and addicted.

Saturday's Christian Jeep Association Drive Away Hunger event was outstanding! Christian Jeep Association Chapter # 1and Chapter #18 worked in partnership with the Southbridge Community Bridge Fridge, Chick-fil-A Worcester, the No Fear motorcycle club, Adult & Teen Challenge, and students from College of the Holy Cross to prepare and run the Net of Compassion Worcester’s weekly Meals on Main Street. Additionally, both CJA MA chapters & Mission For Hope donated over 200 sweat shirts and sweat pants, coats, hygiene kits, and other much needed items to Net of Compassion's faith based emergency shelter; Hotel Grace!
