St. Jeans breakfast program

Volunteering at the St. Jeans breakfast from 7:30 - 8:20 am is a very rewarding experience. The volunteers cut up fruit, spoon yogurt into dishes, toast 50 pieces of bread/bagels/or English muffins , pre-pour milk, serve the children and clean up . The children are of many nationalities, very polite and appreciative . The atmosphere is so nice! A great way to start a morning!
