Each year Rhode Islanders face the ever-present need for food, clothing and holiday gifts. 

Every week, PBN Editor Mark S. Murphy appears on WJAR-TV NBC 10’s Coffee Break to discuss the newspaper’s most recent cover story and other issues with Sunrise and Noon News Anchor Frank Coletta.

This week Murphy and Coletta talk about PBN staff writer Emily Gowdey-Backus’ roundup of the challenges faced by social service nonprofits during the holiday season in a piece titled, “R.I.’s holiday helping hands.”
