Chapelgate is involved on an ongoing basis with Baltimore Rescue Mission, an organization that provides for the basic and spiritual needs of the homeless in Baltimore.
At Christmastime they give out gift bags, and Chapelgate has been invited to contribute items for these bags such as kitchen supplies, gift cards, toiletries, medicine and clothing. For a complete wish list please visit the Information Desk in the lobby. Items may be dropped off in designated bins also in the lobby.

Meet Doug Carl, Grassroots Kitchen Manager
Doug Carl has been involved with Grassroots since the late 70's as a volunteer. Later, he served on its board. With a master's degree in management, he spent a couple of decades in health care management. In his retirement, he wanted to continue to serve at Grassroots. When the renovation of the current facility was complete in April 2008, Doug became the kitchen manager. One of his many jobs is to heat up the meals that have been brought in by the community and make sure there is enough food for the 50 residents that live at the shelter. What a much needed service. Who doesn't like to have a meal provided and served to them!
If you would like to help by making part of a meal, contact me at cpcgrassroots@gmail.com.
