December 2020. A librarian and member of Nahalat Shalom donated bilingual Spanish/English books enough for all our immigrant families for the holidays. The books are for children of all ages - from early readers to chapter books. They will keep children engaged and learning after the biscochitos are all gone! https://www.abqfaithworks.org/contribute-1
No one should go hungry in this country of abundance, even during the pandemic. We appreciate our volunteers who help collect and distribute food to asylum-seeking families resident in Albuquerque and struggling to make ends meet. We supplement food pantry staples and meats with fresh produce purchased in bulk.
