"I think that volunteering at Miriam's will help us all walk away with a greater appreciation for the things we have and give us a chance to give back to others that could use a helping hand."

Located in the District of Columbia, Miriam’s Kitchen prepares and serves breakfast and dinner to 200-300 homeless people each day. Among food services, Miriam’s Kitchen, along with partnering organizations, provides supportive services such as metal health, medical and legal services, assistance applying for benefits, therapeutic art classes, creative writing classes, use of phone and mailing address, and housing assistance.
On November 13, 2014, INO.com will be sponsoring a dinner at Miriam’s Kitchen. Employees and owners alike will prepare and service dinner. This event will not only help those in need in the DC area, but it will also promote corporate teamwork and social responsibility. “I think that volunteering at Miriam’s will help us all walk away with a greater appreciation for the things we have and give us a chance to give back to others that could use a helping hand,” says Kenny Shay, Director of External Marketing. INO Cares organizer, Lindsay Bittinger, hopes that volunteering with Miriam’s Kitchen will become a regular traditional for the INO family.
