Many of our local homeless have been housed and we could use your help.
We are happy to announce that 60 local individuals who were previously homeless have now been housed in apartments. The majority of these individuals do not own anything, not even the bare essentials to outfit their fresh start. We want them to be successful in their new residence and we want to help them turn a house into a true home.
We could really use your help. We are compiling some Fresh Start Housing Kits and are in need of the following items:
Laundry basket
Mugs

Dinner plates
Cereal/soup bowl
Knives forks spoons
Sharp knife (paring as well as larger)
