COVID-19 UPDATE!

March 19, 2020:

Thanks to each of you for your prayers, help, support, patience and understanding as we seek to continue our mission “To come together as a community of all ages to provide nourishing meals and extended care and service to our neighbors experiencing cancer,” in the midst of these times of uncertainty.

What We’re Doing — Client Support

For the safety of our clients and volunteers and in line with the directives of the
Governor, the CDC and the board of health, the Village Project facility will be closed on
Thursday, March 19th, until further notice.
To provide continuing care and support to our clients, beginning Tuesday, April 7th , all clients will receive non-perishable care packages delivered to their homes.

What You Can Do to Help

Providing non-perishable Client Care Packages is considerably more costly than
preparing meals. Please consider helping us offset these costs by doing the following:

Donate items from the non-perishable list. Since the VP office is closed, the Bay Police Dept. has graciously offered to house a Village Project donation bin in their lobby. Donations may be dropped off at any time.
Please consider a financial donation if you are able to do so. Any amount is
appreciated. You can donate on-line or mail payment to: Village Project, P.O.
Box 40023 Bay Village, OH 44140.

Check In On Your Friends and Neighbors

While our VP mission is to care for those battling cancer, please remember others who are home and not able to leave the house due to age or compromised immune systems.

If you are going out, offer to run errands or go grocery shopping for them. You can leave groceries on the doorstep. Give them a phone call or virtual visit to check in and chat.
Take care of yourself. We all need to keep our own immune systems strong. Eat
healthy, get some exercise – a walk, stretching, or simply giving the floor a good
scrubbing, get plenty of rest, drink lots of water, stay connected to other people. Take
breaks from the news. Focus on what’s positive in our world right now and count your
blessings.
Pray – Pray for each other, our nation, our world – for restored health – peace in the
midst of uncertainty. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in
Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13

Project Shoppe Provides An Income Stream Features Locally Sourced Products Enables Us To Feed More Clients

Project Shoppe was born out of the need to provide our organization with an income stream as well as the need to increase community awareness, (ultimately increasing the number of meals and clients we can serve).

Fun facts: our Shoppe’s grand opening on September 24, 2010 marks the 8th anniversary of Village Project’s inception as well as the 5th anniversary of moving into our current building space!

Immunity Broth and Meals-To-Go Are Here!

Stop by and pick up a quick and healthy option for dinner tonight! Village Project entrees are prepared right in our own kitchen and are packaged individually. Our immunity broth is made with fresh herbs and vegetables–a great base for your next soup and a nourishing option for clients who may have a loss of appetite due to the effects of treatment.

A selection of our delicious entrees will change weekly and are available for either $9 (entrees with protein) or $8 (vegetarian). Immunity broth is available in 32 oz. pouches for $4 per bag. Meals and broth can be used immediately or frozen for future use!

March 17, 2020:

After much thought and prayer, for your safety and in line with the directives of the Governor, the CDC and the board of health, we will be closing the Village Project facility on Thursday, March 19th, until further notice.

However, our goal is to continue to do what we can to provide for our clients in the healthiest, safest way possible. This week, in addition to our freshly prepared meals, we are delivering non-perishable food to nourish you for the next few weeks. The first week in April we will reassess our deliveries of fresh and/or non-perishable foods, based on safety regulations and availability. We will contact you at that time to provide updates and next steps.

These are unusual times and concerning on so many levels. We seek to have faith push aside fear and rest in the reassurance that God is in charge. We pray God’s peace and health upon you all.

We look forward to getting through this crisis as a community and hope to resume our normal carryout and retail business soon!

Gourmet Firehouse Salsa is owned by Angelo Tetorakis, who makes and sells his famous mango and pineapple salsas.

The journey began while Angelo, a now retired firefighter, was making salsa for his co-workers one evening at the firehouse. The recipe slowly evolved as the other firemen told Angelo how to improve its taste, and eventually the first of his famous recipes emerged.

All of Firehouse Salsa’s ingredients are free of additives, preservatives, and fillers, and include all natural fruit, peppers, and spices. They are delicious on crackers, served with cheese, or used in your everyday cooking.

Stop in and taste for yourself!

All of Hazelmade’s products are made by Susan Hazel Rich in Kent, Ohio. From her home, she designs greeting cards, notepads, tea towels, little notes, and pocket journals.

Full Cycle Organics Brewing Compost Tea and Premium Organic Compost is now available at Project Shoppe!

Full Cycle Organics~100% Premium. 0% Questionable.

Typical recycling seems almost second nature now. From the grocery to the city streets–even in our own homes–it’s found nearly everywhere. Now, it’s possible to move beyond recycling just paper and plastic–to use your food waste to create a nutrient-rich composting soil that is superior to anything currently available in your local home & garden store.

By recycling our food waste, Full Cycle Organics has done something pretty amazing to further landfill reduction efforts and methane gas emissions–all while supporting a family-owned and operated business.

The founding family started with a vision to create something great out of Cleveland’s food waste. With a whole lot of heart and “tote-loads” of weekly trash no longer entering local landfills, Full Cycle Organics Premium Compost was made.

Brewing Compost Tea and Premium Organic Compost products:

Stimulate microbial activity and supplies organic nutrients for all types of flowers, shrubs, plants, trees, gardens and landscaping
Compost Tea consists of (3) bags, 16 oz net weight; one tea bag makes up to 5 gallons of Premium Tea and can be reused
Premium Compost is approximately 6 quarts net weight and promotes healthier, more active plants and soil

Attention Tea Lovers! The Shoppe is excited to be featuring Steeple House Teas, a cottage industry from Pastor Carol Rettew, located here in Cleveland, Ohio.

She has a passion for premium loose leaf tea and the way relationships are deepened over a good cup of tea! She loves teaching others about its many wonderful aspects–how it is grown, processed and its health benefits.

Steeple House Teas are made from the top two leaves and bud of the tea plant and are selected from some of the most reputable wholesale premium tea companies around. They are carefully chosen to please a variety of tea drinkers.

Stop in the store and pick up a 4 oz. bag of either Black Currant, Apricot Oolong or Irish Breakfast–a perfect way to unwind and enjoy a delicious cup of relaxation. Enjoy the various aromas and subtle nuances. You deserve it!

Modern Sprout was desperate for a fool-proof way to cultivate healthy herbs, vegetables, and flowers, yet maintain their self-esteem. They wanted a victory garden, not planters full of defeat.

After researching non-traditional options, they found hydroponics. A method of cultivation that’s clean, self-maintaining, and yields fantastic results, hydroponics immediately seemed perfect for busy people like them.

But every kit they tried was expensive, difficult to set up, and more homely than homey. They were unimpressed with their options, so they planted the seeds for Modern Sprout. Now they provide planters that are simple, stylish, and fertile with success.

Just add water.

Founded by Jess Ekstrom out of Raleigh, North Carolina, Headbands of Hope is an apparel line of headbands for ladies and kids designed to support children with cancer.

Inspired by a summer internship at a wish-granting organization, Jesse saw that a lot of kids loved to wear headbands after losing their hair to chemotherapy. She did a google search and realized that there were no businesses donating headbands to kids with cancer, only wigs and hats. Jess started Headbands of Hope out of her dorm room in college with two headbands, her computer, and a burning passion to help these kids (and a lot of coffee).

Today, Headbands of Hope is carried in thousands of stores across the world. They’ve been featured on the TODAY Show, Good Morning America, Vanity Fair, Seventeen Magazine, and even supported by celebrities like Lea Michele, Lauren Conrad, Kelsea Ballerini, Lili Reinhart and more.

But more importantly, Headbands of Hope has donated headbands to every children’s hospital in America and 15 countries. When you purchase a headband from Project Shoppe, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to a hospital of our choice.

WE HOPE YOUR HEADBAND WILL SERVE AS A REMINDER WHEN YOU WEAR IT THAT SMALL ACTS OF KINDNESS CAN MAKE A HUGE IMPACT.
