Online shopping is quickly becoming the norm. Take a company like Amazon. They're now bigger than WalMart.
Online donating is also becoming more popular as it's easy and people can connect in a variety of ways.
We like online donations because it also gives us an opportunity to present you with different ways that you can help us.
If you go to our website and look under the donate menu, you'll see an item called virtual giving catalogue. What the catalogue does is allow you to spend a certain amount of money to help us with a specific need. For example, for $25, you can buy a week's worth of lunches for one of the men and women who are part of the Worker Program. These clients have full- or part-time jobs but are still living in the shelter. For a variety of reasons, they are still homeless. We make sure getting to work every day is easy as possible by providing them a separate place to sleep from the main shelter and by providing them a boxed lunch each day.
I want to send a special thank you to everyone in the community who has given to us so far in 2015. I'm also including some special links to our virtual giving catalogue.
