There is a nice new
day shelter downtown for homeless and other people in need; it's called
the “Haven at First and Market.” It opens in late December 2009 and will
provide daily hot breakfasts, job training and more.
Details
News article & background
We all know the feeling when we are walking downtown, or on the Corner, or
in other places and someone in need asks us for money. We can refer these
folks to the Haven at First and Market, ensuring they get a free hot meal
with proper nutrition every day, job training, daytime shelter, and more
... all things which become especially important during the cold months.
Outdoor Adventure Social Club will donate money to prepare and feed one
hot breakfast to a needy someone in our community for every club adventure
*and* Member Social that takes place between Nov. 27, 2009 and the end of
winter (March 19, 2010).
