Give the gift of warmth this holiday season
While many of us gather in warmth this season, over 2,700 people in our city face freezing temperatures with nowhere to turn. Your gift helps provide safe shelter, hot meals, and life-saving support for people living in the harshest of conditions. This holiday season, give more than a present—give comfort, safety, and hope.
