The collaborative event brought together members from St. Catherine Greek Orthodox Church, St. Herman Orthodox Church, and St. Tikhon Orthodox Mission.

Volunteers worked on multiple projects, including preparing and packaging bean soup meals for hungry neighbors, creating greeting cards for Meals-on-Wheels clients, and making baby blankets for families in need. The efforts were aimed at fostering community engagement while providing tangible support to vulnerable populations.
