Saturday Morning Weekly Report

What a day! Our count was a little higher, but we seemed to be steadily “on the run”  Extra thanks to everyone.  We handed out 31 grocery bags plus food boxes to a couple of families.  Among our regular guests were several new men and women. The needs of the homeless are certainly growing. Many […]

Frank Fargo stopped by this morning to drop off this thank you note.   25,000 SHOWERS! It’s not just about the 25,000 showers, clean undies, and toiletries; it’s about the sincere friendships that Frank and Jason have formed with so many Neighbors.  Neighbors in Need wishes you at least 25,000 more!

How about this beautiful cupboard?  Our breakfast teams are all too familiar with how this cupboard can become a hopeless

We had 25 Neighbors come for groceries and hot burritos.  Many thanks to the faithful team from Holy Rosary Catholic Church for doing the early morning cooking. Thank you also to the team from Mercy Watch for being with us.  Each Neighbor who meets with them gets a thorough interview, exam and care of wounds, and, when necessary, a

It’s a new month and, as expected, fewer Neighbors needed our offerings.  We had 20 come for foods and for breakfast burritos. At least 5 of those 20 were new guests to Neighbors in Need.
