Place
News Release - March 2009
Norwich, CT - The Dime Bank Blue Crew recently volunteered
to serve food at the St. Vincent De Paul Place soup kitchen on behalf
of the Hospitality Center in Norwich. On February 23, 14 Dime employees
volunteered at the Community Meal Site, and on March 9, another 11 donated
their time. In all, the Dime Bank Blue Crew served 36 recipients.
Dime Bank provided meals of spaghetti and meatballs, and baked chicken

the chronically homeless, single adults to sleep during the worst parts
of the winter (November 1st - April 1st). It is run by the Norwich Community
Care Team, a group of health and human service, clergy and business organizations
that have come together for the purpose of finding housing solutions for
his group of people.
