“Square Up for Others” – C.O.P. Week

September 8 @ 6:00 pm September 13 @ 6:00 pm

Sign up to provide hot meals to the homeless in Greater Bridgeport on a specific day during “Square Up for Others” C.O.P. Week, Monday, September 8th through Saturday, September 13th!

“Square Up For Others, Inc.” is a 501(C)(3) not-for-profit volunteer-based organization that feeds the homeless and remains in their corner.

Their mission is to address food insecurity and homelessness in the Greater Bridgeport, CT area. “Square Up For Others, Inc.” pursues their goal by providing hot meals and housing support services to individuals in need.

They are unique in their approach. By serving hot home-cooked meals, it shifts a person’s mentality from defensive to welcoming. These shifts allow the Square Up For Others team to establish a better connection in a shorter period of time. Utilizing existing relationships with organizations also helps “Square Up For Others, Inc.” to reduce the time spent on getting individuals the help they need. Once their team has established a foundation, “Square Up For Others, Inc.” works hard to ensure they connect individuals to the correct resources that can help transform them into productive citizens. “Square Up For Others” has helped 162 people (and growing) secure housing.

*Please see Pastor Gilberto or Elder Cathy Plaza this coming Sunday to sign up for a day during the week of September 8th – 13th to prepare and package meals for the homeless or to donate towards this cause. Team up with someone! Let’s make it happen!
