Help the Homeless This Winter

Hand Delivered Hope will be collecting items in Stoneham Saturday.

As the temperatures drop below freezing, the group Hand Delivered Hope will be working hard this weekend to make sure that the homeless are protected against the weather.

The volunteer organization will be collecting blankets, hats and gloves, as well as food, on Saturday, Feb. 21 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Stoneham Senior Center at 136 Elm St. The group will then deliver them to homeless people in Boston.

For more information about the organization, like them on Facebook at facebook.com/handdeliveredhope or email a group coordinator at handdeliveredhope@gmail.com to join the mailing list.
