November 21 – Holiday Gift Bag Assembly Day at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation in the Assabet Valley

About this event

The Holiday Gift Bag Project is Concord Prison Outreach’s largest Beyond the Walls initiative. For decades, CPO has sponsored and provided a simple, useful gift bag to incarcerated people in Massachusetts state prisons. Each bag contains toiletries, a pocket calendar, and a greeting card. While these may seem like simple gifts, each bag is a reminder that people “beyond the walls” see their humanity and care about them during the difficult holiday season.

This year, we’re gifting 2,300 holiday gift bags across 4 locations : Northeastern Correctional Center, North Central Correctional Institute, MCI-Framingham, and MCI-Shirley.

Volunteers are needed on Saturday, November 21, at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation in the Assabet Valley ( 353 Great Rd, Stow, MA 01775 ) to help assemble bags from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

Restoring Dignity, Building Hope:

Along with volunteering, you can extend the impact of this project by sponsoring the cost of holiday gift bags. Together, we can restore dignity and build hope this holiday season. Contribute at donorbox.org/hgb .
