The next free Kingston Community Meal will be held on Nov. 8 at the Village Green Community Center.

The second Friday of each month Kingston offers a free community meal from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Village Green, located at 26159 Dulay Rd NE. Kingston Cares in collaboration with the Village Green sponsor the meals but each month a different community organization hosts the event.

The Nov. 8 meal will be hosted by Delta Kappa Gamma, International Organization of Key Women Educators. We encourage other community groups, workplaces, churches, clubs and organizations to sign up at the Village Green (kingstonvillagegreen.org) to provide future meals.

Please help us spread the word about the meals. We want to make sure that people who are having difficulty stretching their food budgets get the details. Everyone who would like to enjoy a home-cooked, hot meal in the company of community friends and neighbors is invited and welcome to join us at our next meal on Nov. 8 as well as future meals.

Activities include an open gym and board games after dinner for folks who want to make this part of their weekend’s entertainment. The meal is free, but if people want to give back, a donation jar is available.
