CBC 2009

Cardboard Box City was another success in 2009. Over MEA weekend a group of youth and adults from our parish spent one night in the box to raise money and awareness for the homeless in Rochester. There were a few sprinkles but that did not dampen any spirits.
Interfaith Hospitality Network, the Dorothy Day House and the Salvation Army all benefitted from money raised for this event. Our group contributed $350 for these organizations!

Overall, this event raised $17,000. Money goes directly to Dorothy Day Hospitality House, Salvation Army and Interfaith Hospitality Network.

Thank you to all students who participated.
A special thank you to Michelle Larson and Tony Condon who braved the weather for this event!!!
