CHALLE NGE S IN 2020 THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC seems like a bad dream, but it’s all too real and impacts every one of us. For the poor and homeless, their worst fears have been realized. The safety and security they want for themselves, and especially their children, has disappeared. They are facing a terrifying enemy—homelessness during a pandemic. We are working hard to keep hope alive for the most vulnerable of our community. We serve hot meals every day of the year, provide shelter to homeless men, women, children and families, and fill li e-sustaining prescriptions.
