Khadarlis' First Day of Service on Dodge St.: 30 People Served!

Khadarlis is finally starting to look like home!
A little Bit like home

We've been hard at work organizing our donations, hooking up our phones and cleaning up some of the dirt we tracked into the building. 

Khadarlis was a little unsure how we would be able to serve people even without working internet, phones not up, or even any relationships with people in our new neighborhood! We forgot about the easiest way to spread the word: talking to people!

Giving Away Bread

For several months Khadarlis has had a partnership with a local bakery. At our Chalkstone location we were giving away hundreds of loaves of bread away per week. But our latest load simply went bad. We had no way to market or give away loaves! We simply had no time to reach people

Thankfully, the community found us.

Khadarlis is moving this December!

They say the holiday season is the time of year for change and new beginnings. It's no different here for Khadarlis!

Since mid-December our wonderful staff and volunteers have been packing our office on Chalkstone Avenue. We've had a great run here at the Lillian Shawn Feinstein Center, but it is time to move!
And there is a lot to move!

You never really know how much there is to move until you actually have to! As we take down the posters and projects from our walls, we will take our history of service with us.

We will remember the service projects done by our college service learning teams, the people we've helped in Rhode Island and internationally, and the many hours we've put into Khadarlis.

We won't forget the many friends we have among seniors and staff here at the Center as well.

The new building space is located within the First Tabernacle Church.While we're a settling in the new office, we won't be open for service.

So once again we would like to remind you that our new location is 105 Dodge Street, right near Classical and Central High School and Cranston Street.

Unfortunately, we won't be serving the community until the start of the new year on January 7th.

We just don't have the time or location set up to handle our donations. We're saddened that we won't be open during the Christmas holiday or New Year but it's out of our control!

Please share this, and let others know our new location on 105 Dodge Street!
