Warm Hearts (and warm clothes) for Teens at Preble Street

This evening from 5:30-7:30, our community partners at Preble Street have invited us to an Open House to celebrate the Joe Kreisler Teen Shelter, named for USM professor Joseph Kreisler, Preble Street's founder.  More information is at http://www.preblestreet.org/events/Joe-Kreisler-Teen-Shelter-Open-House/442/

 

Preble Street is still welcoming gifts of warm clothing to offer to the teens who will need warmth all through the winter, particularly:

• Hoodies
• Jackets
• Backpacks
• Boots
• Hats, Gloves, Socks
• Jeans

If you'd like to contribute as part of your holiday observance, we are happy to receive donations at our office at 23 Brighton Avenue (the Deering Farmhouse on the edge of the Portland Campus Green, next to Payson Smith Hall and across the intersection from the law School) and get them to Preble Street.  Your heart will be as warm as the recipients' hands and feet!
