Help the Institute stock up its cold weather stores and partner with HHH
Monday, January 2nd, 2012The note that follows is from Cheri Berris, executive director of Hearts Helping the Homeless. Cheri recently joined the Board of Directors of the ArchAngel Institute, forming a partnership between HHH and AI’s ArchAngel Raphael Division toward the goal of getting necessary items to the local homeless. We have designated a room in the Institute with 24 hour, 7 day a week access for select volunteers who are meeting the needs of the most needy on the cold streets of Fort Wayne. Coats, sleeping bags, shoes, McDonald gift cards, hats, gloves, drinks, canned foods, hand warmers — the room is filling up with such necessities and then being emptied as Saints on the Streets, HHH and other ministries distribute the items to the area homeless and impoverished.
Please consider Cheri’s plea below ….
I’m looking for help for the homeless. Jeans in men’s size 30 on up. Coats, hats, gloves, scarves, sleeping bags, back packs, blankets, and travel size hygiene products. They carry everything they own with them.
Some have used up their allotted time at the rescue mission and have little to nothing when they leave.
Please, if you have any questions….ask me. I would love to engage in a conversation about what is so near and dear to my heart.
ps…any job leads would be appreciated.
God Bless,
Cheri Berris Hearts Helping the Homeless
