Project Ezra Continues to Grow
Project Ezra continues to expand in Needham to provide Christmas Day meals to residents who are unable to celebrate with loved ones.
Aired January 5, 2023.
The holidays can be a tough time, especially if you are facing the prospect of being alone, or if you can’t spend time with your family because you have to work. Several organizations come together each year to solve both problems. Project Ezra delivers holiday meals to those who might ordinarily not have one, and it can arguably be said that it is equally joyful for all of those who participate, either on the receiving or the giving end. We spoke with one of the people who made this year’s Project Ezra a success. Lois Sockol files this after-report.
