"...we will be running warming stations the next couple of nights for the homeless out on the streets. We are very worried about the temperature drop, so we will be opening Homeless Services Center during the night and will have heating areas set up around the building as well. If you could help spread the word either in your meetings or via email list serves that if someone needs to get warm they can come to 600 Morgan Street, and be served between 10pm and 6am. Our regular hours begin at 6am. We also will have warm oatmeal, hot drinks, and other warm items handed out as people come through the Center.
We also will be in need of people willing to volunteer to help oversee the warming stations, as well as warm items (gloves, socks, jackets, sleeping bags, etc.) to continue to hand out to those who are in need. If you know someone who would like to volunteer and/or donate please contact me at [email protected]; 707-542-5426 ext. 210."
