November is almost here and we need volunteers to provide meals for the Hotel de Zink program this November.

Each year in November, Hearts for Homeless at MPPC sponsors the Hotel de Zink program. We provide meals and a place to sleep for 15-20 homeless guests during the month of November. We need volunteers and groups to provide dinners, breakfasts and lunches for our guests.

The simplest way to participate is to provide breakfast on one of the days. You purchase breakfast items and drop them off the night before. You can also sign up to serve the breakfast in the morning.

We also need people to serve as “hosts”, to interact with our guests and make them feel welcome. You would be responsible for one day of the week during November, and need to be present from 7:00-9:00p.m.  During this time, you will mix with the guests and share a meal with them. Groups are also welcome to come by at dinnertime to provide music (piano, guitar, etc) or other entertainment - please let us know beforehand if you would like to do this.

For more information please contact Renee Masterson, 650.323.4439. See also some additional tips on interacting with our guests from last year’s orientation meeting.
