Romero House Has Heart

A special honour for Romero House as they are the 2012 Board of Trade Big Heart award winner for their efforts to make Saint John a better place to live.

Romero House was established 30 years ago by executive director Carolyn McNulty as a soup kitchen with the aim of serving one hot meal seven days a week to those in need in Greater Saint John. 

It now includes a clothing room and distribution center for donated household goods and furniture, the services of a nurse one day a week, and a mobile service operating five nights a week in winter to provide temporary shelter, warm clothing and hot food to those living on the streets.

Representatives from Romero House will get their hardware at the Board of Trade Outstanding Business Achievement Awards at the Trade and Convention Centre on October 3rd.
