IN THE PARK

 

Experience life on the streets for an hour or more

 

Friday, March 7th, 7pm to Sunrise

 

Townsend Park (corner of Henry Johnson Blvd. & Central Ave.)

 

Get sponsors for your hour!!!

 

Funds raised will benefit the Homeless Action Committee’s Single Room Occupancy (SRO) housing and Outreach Van programs.  The SRO is a home for chronic alcoholics who previously were homeless and living on the streets for years.  HAC’s Outreach Van program makes rounds on the streets and assists people without shelter or housing.  Outreach workers provide a listening ear, food, clothing, blankets, referrals and transportation to area resources.

 

HAC raises $20,000 from this event, which is usually attended by over 100 people!  College and high school students, elected officials, church groups and supporters participate in this fundraiser.
