DOROTHY DAY HOSPITALITY HOUSE
Feeding the hungry and sheltering the homeless in the Danbury CT area since 1982


St James Episcopal Church in Danbury is serving a meal on Thanksgiving Day so there will be no meal served at Dorothy Day.   If interested in volunteering, check with Carolyn at rflynn8756@aol.com to see if they need help.

Winter is coming so we need warm men's and women's socks,  gloves and machine washable coats.   We run out of these every year so if you want to run a winter clothing drive it would be most appreciated.  See "wish list" page for info on getting donations to us.

We also need new unwrapped toys and other children's items for  Santa's Workshop.   See "Volunteer" page for details.

 Thanks to your help and support we served 52,000 meals last year -- over 140 each day!!
