Emergency Warming Center Updates
|
|
We have been open more and helped more 'neighbors' than our entire last season.
- Open 33 nights and I anticipate many more.
- We have had 43 individual guests & 3 dogs, many who stayed more than one night
- Have provided 171 overnight stays.
- Have served an additional 28 meals to guests who did not spend the night.
It takes 7 volunteers to open each night, a total of 33 hours of volunteer time! Thanks to all who have been part of the 1,089 hours of service.
Thank you to other volunteers who have supported this effort through donations of supplies, meals and finances.
This is truly a community effort to support our 'neighbors' in need.
