Women’s Lunch Place 35th Anniversary Spaghetti Dinner Celebration
Oct 19 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Celebrating 35 Years of Women’s Lunch Place

The Spaghetti Dinner is Women’s Lunch Place’s annual fall fundraising event. This year will be a celebration of the 35th Anniversary of the shelter. We will honor Anne and David Bromer for their vision and support for the Creative Expressions Program providing guests with the opportunity to explore their talents and interests.

Fairmont Copley Plaza in Boston provides a wonderful setting for this lively, family style dinner. Table hosts don chef’s jackets & hats and serve spaghetti, meatballs, and a variety of delicious toppings. An irresistible silent auction and raffle add to the evening’s entertainment. After the dinner program, a dessert reception and dancing is hosted by the WLP Young Professionals.

About Women’s Lunch Place

Women’s Lunch Place (WLP) opened its doors in November of 1982 to serve women a hot lunch in a safe welcoming place. We have grown from serving lunch three times a week into a vibrant and supportive day community that is open six days a week. We serve healthy breakfasts and lunches, and we also provide basic necessities and services that help restore dignity and hope.

Medical care is provided free by Healthcare Without Walls, and advocates and support staff assist women in crisis, struggling with domestic violence, addiction, mental illness, or the stress of being homeless.  Women interested in pursuing employment, housing, and other opportunities use our resource center and library, which provides access to computers and phones, free Wi-Fi, the Internet, and office supplies. The Creative Expression Program offers classes in painting and drawing, photography, sewing and knitting, and writing. Additional classes are offered in yoga, meditation, and wellness to provide women the chance to heal and respite from the stressors of poverty and loneliness.

Runner Safety Workshop at Marathon Sports
Jan 27 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm

Join the global running community in support of Runner Safety Awareness Week! Learn how to stay safe while doing what you love.

Almost daily the media report stories of violent physical attacks on runners. Those who fight back are more likely to get away, yet without some form of training, it’s hard to know what to do. Join ROAR TRAINING instructors Julie Morrill and Rebecca Tolkoff for a seminar on personal safety where you will learn how to fight back. The training will include safety tips, scenario discussions, and some empowering self-defense techniques. Bring your sense of humor and sense of adventure.

All under-18 participants must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Recommended for ages 14+.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN IN THIS COURSE?

  • How to respond to violent situations;
  • Basic tools for fighting back, including: the ideal stance to help maintain your balance and get away and basic “tools” for fighting, such as punches, kicks, elbows, and knees;
  • Defending against common attacks, such as: wrist grabs, bear hugs, chokes, and being pushed to the ground.

This event is part of a national and global movement in support of Runner Safety Awareness Week (#RSAW) in partnership with The Run Collective.
