On Friday, Dec. 21, the longest night of the year, Garden State Episcopal Community Development Corp. will participate in the annual National Homeless Memorial Day. Each year on the longest night of the year groups around the country gather to remember homeless people who died on America’s streets.
The Garden State Episcopal Community’s interfaith memorial will take place at 1 p.m. at the Church of the Incarnation, 68 Storms Ave. Every one is invited to attend and share remembrances.
Throughout this day volunteers are also invited to help make sandwiches and put together bagged gifts for the homeless from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
To volunteer or for more information, call (201) 209-9301 or e-mail volunteer@gsecdc.org.
