Friar Football Serves the Chester City Team Ministry Cafe of Hope
Over 40 Bonner & Prendie players, parents and coaches volunteered on Saturday 10/21 at the Chester City Team Ministry Cafe of Hope. The Hope Cafe is part of the City Team Ministry that helps people who have fallen on hard times. Through volunteers they provide meals daily to all in need and every Saturday provide a quality dining experience for the homeless and hungry. 

Our players set up the dining hall- from table cloths to flowers and place settings, helped with all food prep, waited the tables of over 200 guests, served dinner, dessert, and drinks, cleared the tables, worked in the kitchen in serving and dish-washing and stayed to clear and clean the dining hall.
