2022 PRS Staff Pie Rush

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, it's time for the annual PRS PIE RUSH! The Thanksgiving Pie Rush is a great tradition at PRS which the Staff loves and anticipates each year. Each Staff member and bus driver picks a pie of their choice to enjoy with their family over Thanksgiving. We need about 95 pies to make this event happen. If you'd like to donate 1 or more pies, please sign up below. Pies can be homemade or store-bought (no frozen pies, please). Please deliver pies to 22 Partridge Dr or 101 Hobart St between Sunday, 11/20, and Tuesday, 11/22. There will be bins for the pies. Thank you for helping show the PRS staff we are grateful for them this Thanksgiving!

Support the Homeless This Holiday Season

For the past several years, members of the PRS community have helped Friends of the Homeless (FoH) of the South Shore provide Christmas gifts to families living in homeless shelters or transitional housing by donating newly purchased gifts. Again this year, the PRS Community Service Committee is sponsoring this holiday gift program. If you are interested in helping out the homeless this holiday season by sponsoring an individual or family, please contact Jen Korn ([email protected]). FoH aims to give three gifts to each person sponsored, totaling about $60.00 per person. We provide donors with the first name, age, gender, and sizes for each person on the list, as well as the client’s interests or gift suggestions as a guide for shopping. Thank you for your support.
