UPDATES

November Soup Tasting

Servin’ Soup for Carriage House Community Table (CHCT) on a Snowy Saturday.

Thanks to everyone who supported Boulder’s Carriage House Community Table in November, by coming out for our annual soup tasting fundraiser. The event was a complete success- we sold out of cornbread and a number of our soups and raised $250 to help CHCT care for Boulder’s homeless and working poor. We also would like to thank everyone who brought in toiletries and socks to help keep Boulder’s homeless population warm, dry and clean this winter. We were amazed and touched by the magnitude of individual donations. It was not unusual to receive entire duffel bags full of clothing, socks and toiletries. It was with great joy that we brought the abundant donations to CHCT. Thanks to everyone who went out of their way to help those in need!
 

Share A Gift

Thank you for helping us make the holiday season an abundant time for all! It was such a joyful experience to witness our Share a Gift collection box fill up daily with anonymous donations. Momentum was not the only drop off location that received even more gift donations than last year, making this year even better for those in need.
