Many ward members donated items and money to the shelter. The items were left out on peoples porches and the YM & YW picked them up. After we had all driven downtown to the homeless shelter and dropped the items off, we then headed over to the kitchen area. Normally the individuals and families living there are on their own for food everyday, however we were able to make the meal and feed them.
It was very touching to see small families in clothing that didn't fit and newborn born babies and small children with hardly any worldly goods. It really made us all appreciate our blessings, to be standing there in our everyday clothes and to have a home to live in. We are so fortunate. ~Valesca
