Your February 2019 Mission Insider Newsletter is here!

February 2019
Welcome to our Valentine's edition of Mission Insider. We are thrilled to celebrate the First Year Anniversary of our Day Center for Individuals Experiencing Homelessness. It is hard to believe that it has been a year since we opened our doors to provide much needed services to our homeless population but we are very proud to share that a year later, we have expanded the days we open to five days a week, and we continue to provide the following services to individuals experiencing homelessness: Mailing address for official documents; showers that are Handicap Accessible; laundry services; charging stations for cell phones; computers to apply for services or to look for employment; and daily meals or access to our food pantry.  Thanks to our partner N'Style we continue to provide free haircuts to homeless individuals once a month. 

We hope that everyone that receives and opens this newsletter reflects on the importance of love and helping others.

Special Thanks
Construction of Homeless Day Center


Our Homeless Day Center could not be possible without the in-kind donation received from BUCH CONSTRUCTION.

This amazing company donated the full construction of our Homeless Day Center including the two ADA compliant showers, new water heater, plumbing and electrical work.
Thanks to Karyl Bloyer for her generous pledge to pay for a new Washer and Dryer that will be used at the New Day Center. 

We are extremely thankful for this contribution as it will allow us to help individuals experiencing homelessness do their laundry at our warehouse.
