SeniorsOperation Friendship, which we still support, was founded as a request to R-W from the Sisters of Providence to develop housing for 8 to 10 difficult-to-house inner city seniors. The current Operation Friendship program, and Pioneer Place, where seniors in need are housed and fed hot lunches and provided a space for gathering and conversation (called the McCauley Seniors’ Drop-in Centre) resulted in part from the work of R-W members and a still current member of our committee. Today we continue to provide money, food and servers for four hot meals at Operation Friendship in the summer months. |
