GIFTS FROM ROTARIANS, CERES’ MILESTONE

Members of the Rotary Club of San Rafael donated $1,000 to Homeward Bound of Marin which was used to purchase new bikes, outdoor play equipment and games for the organization’s emergency family shelter in San Rafael.

Ceres Community Project celebrated its 14th birthday by delivering its millionth meal. The delivery was made by state Sen. Mike McGuire, Windsor City Council member Esther Lemus and Ceres founder and CEO Cathryn Couch. Carmen (last name withheld) from Windsor was the lucky recipient who said, “Receiving these meals is such a gift. It means that I don’t have to shop. I don’t have to cook. I don’t have to smell the food when I am feeling sick. And yet I have these delicious and healthy meals whenever I need them.”  Ceres Community Project cooks and delivers organic, nutritious meals to mostly low-income neighbors in Marin and Sonoma counties who are facing a health crisis. The organization recently was a recipient of a Giving Marin $10,000 grant.
