At least the Whole Foods stores in Cambridge. Today, Tuesday, January 9 the Whole Foods Markets in the three Cambridge locations will be donating 5% of their sales to Cambridge Housing Assistance Fund. Whole Foods runs these five percent giving days (they call them CommUnity Giving Days) to benefit local charities from time to time, but it's great when the benefit helps to even the playing field a little bit. Cambridge Housing Assistance Fund (CHAF) provides housing assistance and counseling to help break the cycle of homelessness. Anyone who's got an apartment in the Boston area knows that first and last months rent and a security deposit can add up quick, leaving little (if anything) left to go into subsequent months. CHAF reports that over 95% of the families they've assisted are out of shelters and have been in their homes after a year. Tomorrow, January 10 the Boston locations of Whole Foods will be donating 5% of sales to Pathways to Wellness "a non-profit organization located in the South End Community Health Center and committed to providing equal access to high quality holistic care including acupuncture, shiatsu and Chinese herbs." more ›

(As per Mrs. Gardner's... more ›
