For I Was Thirsty

Description: One hot afternoon while distributing socks at St. Francis Inn in Philadelphia, a homeless man asked for a cold glass of iced tea. Sadly, the Inn, located in the City of Brotherly Love, was all out of iced tea and had only water to offer. Though he was grateful for the glass of water, he longed for something more.

Results: Through this small project, we obtained a $250.00 gift card from Giant Food Stores in Carlisle, PA which was used to purchase powdered iced tea mix for the Inn. Our gratitude is extended to the store’s management for their generosity and expression of kindness and caring.
