Is there anything better than a new book? The children in Out of School Time each received several to take home thanks to our friends at Unitarian Universalist Church of Delaware County (UUCDC), who donated $1,435 for the project. The books, written by African American authors, were purchased from Hakim’s Bookstore & Gift Shop. Can’t wait to start reading!
The bounty of February has spilled into March. We received almost 6,000 pounds of canned goods and other non-perishables last month, thanks to local churches and community organizations collecting for the Souper Bowl of Caring. Their generosity continues to provide nourishing meals for our families. #souperbowlofcaring #cannedgoods #foodinsecurity #chestereastside
Someone is ready for summer gardening – what a terrific hat! #gardening #summerhat #chestereastside
Our winter veggies are hearty. The children picked collards, kale and spinach, all of which survived the cold weather. What a surprise for Mrs. Redd! #winterveggies #collards #kale #spinach #yum #chestereastside

Finally – gardening outdoors! The garden clubbers and their friends cleared out the containers, planted and watered the pansies, separated seeds and tied it all together with “Seed, Soil, Sun.” #gardening #communitygarden #pansies #seeds #seedsoilsun #chestereastside

Don’t forget to move your clocks up an hour before you go to bed. We may lose an hour of sleep tonight, but we gain later sunsets and longer evenings for months. #springahead #daylightsavings #sunlight #yeah #chesterreastside
Our Latin dance clubbers have all the right moves (and a Zoom teacher to keep them in step).
