First Fridays on McKenna's Wagon
NPC has been invited to staff one of two McKenna's Wagon vans operated by Martha's Table the first Friday of June and July.
If we are successful at staffing both dates with NPC members and friends (only need four per day), NPC will be invited to support
this effort on an ongoing basis.
Those who serve are asked to arrive at Martha's Table, located at 2114 14th Street, N.W. (3 blocks
from U St/Shaw METRO Station), between 4:45 and 5:00 p.m. on date of service. The group receives a brief overview of the
program and then leaves by 5:15 to go to a site where dinner is served to the homeless by the staff from the Wagon. We return to
Martha's Table between 6:15 and 6:30.
