Auggie's Cafe is a non-denominational, ecumenical
group of volunteers working to provide a substantial
lunch meal to those in need using the church kitchen and
hall, every Tues. between 11:00 & 13:00 hrs. They serve
60 to 70 people, mainly seniors on fixed pensions, and
any others in need. Single mothers & kids, folks on
assistance, whoever shows up, nobody is turned away.
Auggie's just had the 2nd. anniversary this month, March
2013. The local community and businesses have been very
supportive, it has become an event to look forward to
each week and gets a lot of single seniors out of their
apartments to enjoy a good meal and visit with others.
Volunteer staff are very adept at identifying those who
need a little help with problems from time to time, &
quietly arrange assistance. From comments received,
Auggie's services are much appreciated.
