Donor Highlight

This week we received a large anonymous donation of brand new sweatshirts, Dickies pants, shorts, polo shirts, and bomber jackets.

Given the colder weather this came in perfect timing!

Student Volunteer Highlight

The highlight is actually on two students!

This beautiful picture of Mariam and Zaen from CSUF, was taken by a member of our team, Rebecca. Read below to see what they were up to this afternoon.

"I took a walk with Mariam and Zaen to show them the outskirts of the shelter and for them to meet some of our guests that use the services at The Courtyard. We saw firsthand, another facet of hunger of those living on the streets. A hunger for someone to see them where they are, through the eyes of love and to remind them of the doors that are open to offer services when they are in need."
- Rebecca (CN)

They continued to walk around the neighborhood, connect with our homeless neighbors, and provide a supportive ear. These moments can be so impactful to someone who may otherwise not have an outlet, thank you all for your dedication to the community.
