A Home for the Holidays
November 16, 2022
Dear Day Center Friend,
As you are aware, homelessness has indeed increased in 2022. The pictures you see below are not models but actual individuals, families and children that are now HOME for the HOLIDAYS because of our dedication, determination and belief in our vision that states “We envision a future where every Tulsan has a home”. So far in 2022, a promising future became a reality for over 300 individuals and families.
These folks began their journey with us as we provided their basic needs: shelter, showers, clothing, medical care, food, case management and a message of hope. Meeting with them, establishing relationships with them, helping them overcome a multitude of barriers, navigating them to a place they now can call home is our mission. Their experience of homelessness ended. However, our relationships don’t end there, as we continue to follow up with many of them assuring housing stabilization and sustainability.
Many others are still coming through our front door experiencing homelessness for the first time. Facing a funding gap, inflation, increasing costs for utilities, medical supplies and other essentials, we need your help now more than ever! Please consider a gift to the Tulsa Day Center so that we can continue this most vital work. May you and your family have a blessed holiday season! Thank you.
Sincerely,
Mack Haltom, Executive Director
