Help for the Homeless Letter Writing Campaign

Help request support for those who can’t ask for support themselves by writing letters or doing a social media campaign making our representatives and senators aware of the need.

Why is it important?

During this time of we need to make sure that we can do whatever we can to help everyone in our community. One thing we can do it write letters or make social media posts urging our representatives and senators to make sure they think about our homeless population when they are making plans to help people and businesses in our communities.
