Community Kitchen Project
The Dorcas Circle is beginning another drive to benefit those who utilize the shower facilities at the Community Kitchen in downtown Chattanooga. Bath towels, wash cloths and small soaps are being collected for those folks ( for those of you who travel, the small unused soaps in the rooms are perfect!).
There is a large tub located near the elevator entrance where you can drop your donations of these items.
