Friends Helping Friends

This is an activist, grass-roots (and sometimes controversial) organization with a community center offering assistance to residents in NW Rochester. FHF distributes food, clothing, other goods and has had health and nutrition workshops. They have outreach for children and has given repaired bikes to kids in the community.

Currently, they're in a dispute about using welfare-to-work volunteers from the county and are seeking volunteers to help them during the week and on weekends. They need help with construction, clothes and food sorting and various other tasks.
