The Ladies Philoptochos Board thanks the community for generously donating children's coats and toys for The Dimock Center. The donations were dropped off and will be distributed to the children who are served by The Dimock Center's early intervention, Head Start, and preschool programs, which serve more than 100 children from infants up to 5 years of age. The Dimock Center, located in Roxbury less than 2 miles from the Cathedral, provides health and support services to children, adults, and families. In addition to the donated coats and toys, the Philoptochos Board voted to donate $1,000 in gift cards using proceeds from the successful St. Nicholas luncheon so The Dimock Center could ensure that each child had a gift to open on Christmas morning. The staff at The Dimock Center was grateful for our Cathedral community's support.
