Paper Tigers Screening and Panel Discussion on 3/20
A free screening of Paper Tigers will be held on Sunday, March 20th at 3:00 pm in Crooker Theater at Brunswick High School on 116 Maquoit Road. The film will be followed by a brief discussion.
Tedford Housing’s outreach coordinator for the Merrymeeting Project for homeless youth, Donna Verhoeven, will be part of the panel discussion.
We are fortunate to have so many wonderful, caring donors giving to Tedford in so many creative ways. This past month, we are thankful for the sock drive Kane, a Lisbon Falls student, organized; the book drive students from the Tiger Team at Williams-Cone Elementary School in Topsham completed; the collection of items from our wish list that Stacey from Creative Treasures Workshop put together; and the assembly of care bags by the Positive Outreach Service Team for the emergency adult shelter. Thank you to everyone who supported Tedford in some way this past month!
Celebrating Tedford Housing Adult Shelter Staff
It's not often that we get group shots of our wonderful staff here at Tedford Housing. Here is a rare photo of our hard-working team at the emergency adult shelter all together after a recent staff meeting.
As a board member commented on our Facebook page, they are "our unsung heroes." Thanks for all the work you do 24 hours / day, 7 days / week to support our guests and the mission of Tedford Housing!
