How Can You Help the Homeless?
Volunteers are needed to help prepare either hot or cold meals for 60 homeless people in Poughkeepsie. The meal is sent or served at Hillcrest House, which is part of Dutchess County Coalition for the homeless. Holy Trinity volunteers serve the second Wednesday of every month.
The homeless shelter is also in need of donations of twin size sheets, pillowcases, towels and washcloths. These do not need to be new, used in good shape are acceptable. Also travel size soap, shampoo, cream rinse, deodorant, toothpaste and new toothbrushes as well as disposable shavers. Mens and womens socks are always in great demand.
