New UU’s Serve Opportunities – Flourish Meal Preparation and Serving
UUFWS volunteers have prepared and served dinner for the Flourish program of the Shalom Project for the past 4 years. Flourish is one of our UUFWS Community Partners This is a long loved tradition for our congregation helping women overcome poverty. We will be preparing the meal at the UUFWS kitchen then take it to serve dinner at the Shalom Projects new building 726 N Cherry St, Winston Salem. We have scheduled the meals for Fall 2026.

You are welcome to sign up for meal planner, meal prep, an/or serving. There is also a slot for an alternate in case someone who has signed cannot come at the last minute we will have someone to call. Meal Planner will communicate with those who signed up.
UUFWS has been participating in these meals since Spring of 2022, and it remains one of our most meaningful and joyful volunteer opportunities. It’s also a great way to meet other members. We so appreciate everyone who helps with these meals.
Thank you for helping us continue this tradition of care and community.
