Each month CSFP provides Kids Club bags to over 600 families with children. During 2024, each month St. John’s will collect a specific non-perishable kid-friendly item that is not freely provided by the Greater Boston Food Bank. Beginning Sunday, June 1st it is Souper June. Please donate any kind of chicken-based or tomato soup. Please leave items on the bench in DiMauro Hall. Thank you.
