Cherry Street is serving unprecedented number of guests and needs community's help

As you may have heard from the local news, Cherry Street has experienced a staggering increase in need of services such as Food, Clothing, and Shelter.

It’s one thing to see news reports about double-digit unemployment.  It’s quite another to see the double-digit effects right on your doorstep.

At Cherry Street, our shelters are overflowing -- there’s a staggering 51% increase in women alone!  Of course, with more guests, we’re serving even more meals than before. 

So, how can you help? 

Please consider engaging the needs of our community with the support found within your family, circle of friends, co-workers, church, and neighbors by encouraging them to pick one or more of the groups from the “Opportunity List”.
