Speaking of the Homeless Stand Down, there are still opportunities to participate in this year's service fair for homeless people. We still need volunteers. We still need hygiene kits, and bagged lunches. We still need boots and coats. These are perfect volunteer activities for groups to think about working on over the next month. All of the information is available on our Stand Down website www.homelessstanddown.org. If you want to volunteer call Toni at InterAct Cleveland 216/241-0230 or complete the application on-line. We will most likely serve 2,400 people over the three days, and we need all the help we can get. This year the Stand Down is January 31 (boots and coats) in Tremont. We are doing the Health Fair event at the Convention Center on February 6, 2009, and then respite from cold at Trinity Cathedral on President's Day all under the banner of the Stand Down.
With the rough economy, we need your help to to make this 18th Stand Down in Cleveland a success.
