Thanking our community partners, including Downtown Evening Soup Kitchen and Calvin Hill Day Care Center, for opening their doors and hearts to CHSC adults! #chscfamilyweekend #grateful #careerability #deskct
Grateful to have worked with the talented team of graphic design students, Gian, Deyondre, and Alanah, at @unewhaven_artanddesign this semester! They helped us create a branding guide and draft next year's Annual Report to help us better communicate our impact in New Haven 💙
On April 30, DESK volunteers joined CFAN to testify before the Board of Alders, urging the city to restore funding for food assistance. Yesterday, Mayor Elicker proposed a $350,000 amendment to support CFAN. The Finance Committee will consider it on Thursday, with the full Board voting later this month. We're encouraged by this progress and will monitor to ensure it passes by June 1. DESK believes feeding neighbors isn't charity but a community responsibility that the City of New Haven should share. We hope all officials agree! #HungryForChange #FoodIsAHumanRight #NewHaven #DESK #CFAN #FoodJusticeice
