"We're so grateful for alL of the community members that have come forward," Weza said. The St. David's Parish Hall Ministries includes vol- unteers from several local churches. In addition to pro- viding daily dinners for the homeless and impoverished in Shelton, the ministry also provides free showers three days a week and a nighttime cold weather shelter. In 2011, the ministry served 13,404 meals and the shelter was open 143 nights, serving 1,760 guests. Each night the community meals program serves between 70 and 100 people, Weza said. "There is a need," she said. "It really is wonderful be- cause although we have been doing the meals now for six years with church volunteers we are now getting business- es on board to support the ministry as well." If cooking dinner once a month is too big of a commit: tment, individuals and orga- nizations can give monetary donations to St. David's. To participate in the Stone Soup Society, go to unitedwayma- sonco.org and click "Get In- volved," or contact Case at pcase@greendiamond.cem. "In founding the Stone Soup Society, our aim is to work with the business com- munity to raise awareness and increase participation from that sector," Case said.
