CSN Drive - The Greek Ladies Aid Association of Newburyport Greek Orthodox church would like to invite all parishioners to participate in a good cause. We would like to support the Community Service of Newburyport (CSN) with a fundraiser/donation of the products they need (paper towels & toilet paper). Personal Care Products are not covered by federal assistance programs.
 
The mission of CSN is to provide resources to our neighbors who are struggling financially and help them achieve economic stability, as well as a sense of community and belonging. The drive will take place at our church from May 17th to May 31st. There will be large boxes where you can drop these items. In addition, there will be a small donation box with info in case you want to drop a check or cash donation. If you have any questions, please text Marianna Toumpourou directly at 617-202-8648.
