Local synagogue serves up Holiday dinner at the Stamford Homeless Shelter

The Stamford Homeless Shelter 
on Pacific Street

It has been a tradition for nearly 15 years at the Stamford Homeless Shelter.

Every Christmas day, over a dozen volunteers from Stamford's Agudath Sholom prepare delicious kosher dinners for the many residents of the shelter.

This year was no exception.

The menu included tossed salad and assorted dressings.

Then roast turkey with stuffing and gravy, glazed pastrami and various types of meatballs, 6 sides with lots of bread and dinner rolls.

Finally there were assorted cookies, brownies, fruit salad and assorted candy.

In addition, many volunteers brought a plethora  of warm winter gloves, scarves and knitted hats.

The students of The Westover School of Stamford provided decorations and placemats.

Kudos to all who made this day so special at the shelter!
