Our friend lives in this tent "home".Β It's cold, wet and if we're being honest, most of us wouldn't make it through the night "sleeping" in it.
Since the core group of humans we serve were swept from the American River Parkway, most of them have been moved at least 3 to 5 times.
Often they are told they have to move to the next street down. Every time they are forced to move they become more vulnerable.
8 out of 10 people ask us for beanies and gloves.Β Β
Other needs are tarps, blankets, adult jackets and hand warmers.
Consider donating these items or contributing financially and we will shop for you.Β
