Helping Those In Need
2012 has been an interesting year. So far this year our focus has been to partner with other non profits. To date we have managed to purchase some beds for some formerly homeless vets who now have apartments. We’ve also succeeded in getting water and juice donations to help those who can’t go out and have daily or weekly deliveries. Living in the desert, the food and juice donations are more than welcome and we’ve been lucky enough to get pallets full of both thanks to Las Vegas Dream Center.
We are in the planning stages for some events later this year that we will tell you about in the coming weeks.
We would also like to thank our US Senators and Congressional Representatives for recognizing our efforts. We are small but we know that we can and will make a difference.
