Please consider making a coat donation using our registry so we have enough winter wear for all our guests: https://t.co/ZhyDq7j5Vs. 🧥 (2/2)

We’re excited to start distributing coats to families on Monday! We’ve been fortunate to receive lots of donated coats & other winter gear from neighbors over the past few weeks. But we could still use more help to prepare our families for the incoming drop in temperature. (1/2)

[PeopleServingPeople @P_S_P]

Our staff are diligently working to stabilize as many families as possible. But we can’t do this work without help from neighbors like you. Make a gift today at https://t.co/xfg7PV0zsh so we can continue to fuel this life-changing service. (3/3)

When you support PSP, you provide a safety net for vulnerable families! Last year, our Prevention Program provided $403K in direct financial aid to help 58 families remain housed. This money helped participants pay off back rent, utility bills, and other crucial expenses. (1/3)

[PeopleServingPeople @P_S_P]

2025 is far from over, yet our Prevention Program has already served 56 families – nearly surpassing the previous year’s metrics. With costs rising and social safety nets being cut, the need for homelessness prevention has never been higher. (2/3)

Ending homelessness requires a local government that supports systemic change and responsive impact. We're so grateful to have your support in making our shelter a safe space for families, but we also need help creating permanent solutions for our community. (1/2)
