Homeless and Hungry, please help

Dear Friend,

This holiday, it might mean looking a little deeper, but joy and hope for the season are present and powerful.

David knows about the power of hope. He arrived “completely broken” in his words, to a local Volunteers of America facility after struggling with homelessness for years. David’s deep strength combined with our wrap-around services provided him stability and growth and as he put it, “brought back a light within me.“

Please donate this holiday and be a "light" for the homeless and hungry people that we are helping right now.

David thrived and went on to become an employee at our shelter, helping others like him.

“I see people, as lost as I was, and I will be there for them…It’s not about you, it’s about everyone else…We need community.”

We are strongest as a community when we look out for each other. And this year calls for as much strength as we can muster, while Covid-19 continues to devastate families.

Please be as generous as you can. I promise that your kindness will go far in caring for and healing our most vulnerable neighbors.

My deepest thanks, and Happy Holiday wishes to you and yours,

Stephanie Paauwe
Volunteers of America
