Where is your money going? Part 3

Where is your money going? Part 3

 

Our third special gift of $12,500 was given to our local Valley Restart Shelter. Helping people at some of the most difficult times of their lives, is where Valley Restart…get’s started! Over the years, besides regular monthly support, we’ve had many groups help with meals by feeding those in the shelter.

In their own words: “VRS has developed a successful program to help those that want help to get back on their feet and restart their lives. The maximum length of stay is 90 days. In those 90 days people are offered intensive case management and connections to local resources. VRS partners with many local agencies to help every person access what they might need. VRS provides shelter, 3 meals a day, laundry facilities, a savings program, case management, and tutoring. The percentage of persons who leave the shelter to more stable housing averages from 80-90%.”

“And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!’”  (Matthew 25:40 NLT)
