Mary-Catherine's warm smile and friendly personality embody a restaurateur's hospitality. As co-owner of UpStairs on the Square and its earlier incarnation, UpStairs at the Pudding, Mary-Catherine has hosted LifeSavor diners every year since the event's inception in 1993. A a member of Community Servings' Board of Directors, Mary-Catherine is one of our staunchest advocates and cheerleaders -- helping us secure proceeds from events like Taste of Cambridge and Restaurant Week Boston.
Our Staff
Mary Hinson Office Adminstrator
Mary started at Community Servings in November 1999 -- right in the middle of Pie in the Sky, one of our largest fundraisers. Back then, we didn't have voice mail so Mary spent her first few days taking message after message from pie buyers! Since then, she has continued to keep the office running and welcome visitors. Before Community Servings, Mary worked at Project Star, a daycare program at the Dimock Center for children and families affected by HIV/AIDS, and helped run several family businesses in Roxbury including a restaurant and a store.

An ingenious business woman and philanthropist, Barbara bought three of Princess Diana's evening gowns for her Newbury Street boutique and then leveraged them for local charities. Ours raised enough to buy our first building in Roxbury!
