As someone who has lived the life most of these people are going through, I love that I can give back and help them out. When I was struggling, this place helped save my life and now I get to do that for others

I am not from Haverhill so I don't come to Common Grounds that frequently but it seems like a decent place to get a meal.

It's a fun place to go if you don't really have anywhere else to go people that are extremely nice play give out food overall just a great place to hang out with friends if you don't really know where else to go

Raquel's Take

This is a place where everyone has something in common. They go there for help. They feed the homeless, provide 3 meals a day and now showers will be accessible. They also have a thrift shop. People go there to eat, pray, get services and resources. I volunteer once a month and bring my little guy with me. He enjoys helping and listening to veteran stories. We eat and pray together and it's always a blessing.
