​In addition to the volunteer activities, we are collecting food and personal care items for underserved populations in Lexington and the surrounding areas. We will provide curbside pickup. Please place all donations in the trunk of your car and pull up to the front door of Grace Chapel (facing Mass Ave) and a volunteer will come out to you car and remove donations from your trunk. 
Donate non-perishable food items for the Lexington Food Pantry; new toys for girls ages 6-12 for Birthday Wishes; books, DVDs, CDs, video games and other media for More Than Words; gently-worn kids clothing (winter layers for kids preferred), well-preserved used toys for Cradles to Crayons, and monetary donations to keep our Day of Service impactful and vibrant.
