are homeless. Higher
unemployment and
the rise in home
foreclosures mean
many more families
with children are
turning to shelters for
assistance. Here are a
few ways you can help.
Q;Donate “comfort
items,” such as teddy
bears and soft blankets
that the children can
keep for themselves.
Q;Go in with a friend
and host a pizza
party for kids at a
local shelter.
Q;Buy new school
supplies for a shelter.
Items such as
notebooks, backpacks,
and books are a
perennial need.
