FREE DINNER: For everyone who needs one on Christmas Day

Just found out about this – adding to the WSB West Seattle Holiday Guide:

The Christmas People will host a complimentary meal for homeless, seniors, and others who need a meal on Sunday, December 25, 2016 from noon to 4 p.m. at Alki Masonic Center, 4736 40th Avenue SW. Marc Smason, trombonist, will provide entertainment. This event is entirely without cost as a public service.

Christmas People is a 501 (c) (3) not profit organization; we celebrate our 18th year of providing hot meals to homeless and seniors in the Greater Seattle Area. During the weekend, Christmas People will also prepare evening meals for various downtown shelters.

Donated homemade cookies are welcomed for dropoff at the Masonic Center 9 am-4 pm on December 23rd and 24th.

    Hi-

    I would love to bake up some cookies and drop them off. Does anyone have contact information? I would be happy to volunteer and/or donate any other needed supplies other than the cookies.

    Thank you for putting on this dinner for our community!
