Please Read: Updates - Veterans Day is Coming

UPDATED Information! Re: 11/2/2026 - I need to run this! Who is available?

Working on a story for this occasion. Here is what I have learned so far:

The Sidewalk Showers project is specifically geared for the homeless population in our area. At this time, the population includes 5 to 8 veterans.

I posted a PDF with my personal story.

I completed a discovery call and was on track with the message I wrote here. I am going to add more about what Veteran's Day means, in honoring our veterans. I was able to talk to her about regarding the set-up, when I can go to the place to walk around, and run that list. Further information I will gather will be based on the 'what is it about this program that drew them to provide this program' I may need a security guard due to the nature of some issues we have been dealing with in our area.

I am prefacing with this information. Please read through the PDF, and give feedback!
