With Thanksgiving coming tomorrow, we'd like to express our deepest gratitude to St. Francis Community Healthcare's Mike Stowe and David Grenon for their generosity and continued support of Pernet!  Their generous donation was presented to Pernet's staff, board, and Thanksgiving volunteers, as seen below.

In preparation for Thanksgiving this week, Pernet staff and volunteers distributed turkeys to over 300 families!

​Wishing you all the happiest of Thanksgivings!

​Youth Group visited the Worcester Art Museum this week! We learned about knights during the Middle Ages, and got to take a close look at their armor, swords, and spears. We also toured the Medieval galleries and Chapel Room!

​Pernet hosted a Career Day Panel Discussion inviting youth from agencies around Worcester to learn about a variety of occupations! Panelists shared about the jobs they are doing today and their past experiences around employment. They also answered questions posed by the youth during a Q & A session. It was a great success! Thank you to our panelists and all that attended!

 Youth Group volunteered at Earn-A-Bike on Saturday. We helped fix donated bikes and clean-up the volunteer run bike shop! After volunteering her time over the past month, one of our youth earned her very own bike!

We'd like to extend our sincerest thanks to Bay State Savings Bank for the generous grant and on-going support of our organization.  Please enjoy their latest newsletter!

Youth Group spent the afternoon playing Halloween themed games at Crompton Park from Capture the Pumpkin (similar to Capture the Flag) and Mummy Wrap. We then returned to make lanterns and enjoyed Halloween Treats!
