We have had an old-fashioned winter…cold and snow almost every day. We are certainly glad to have the comfort of our houses.Now imagine if you did not have that, and lived below a bridge, outside.
A few of the things that would comfort you and give you some dignity are new underwear and socks.
Grand Island, with the help of local businesses and churches, collected approximately 10-12 large bags of underclothing and socks to donate to the local missions.
Niagara Community Mission, Lighthouse Ministries of Niagara Falls and the Homeless Task Force of the Tonawandas were the recipients of the generosity of Grand Island residents.

The empathy and caring of our community is to be celebrated.
