The Calvary Temple Church, located at 513 E. Pine St., Central Point, has offered to be a warming station during these upcoming freezing nights.
The church organizers have partnered with Access, which will provide warm soup and bread.
They also will allow homeless guests to bring their dogs inside the shelter – so long as the pet is crated. Since a crate/cage is generally not an item most homeless folks own, the outreach is asking for donations of the following to help keep pets safe and warm:
Dog crates/cages/pens – all sizes
Leashes and collars
Pet food, kibble only, please
The shelter could also use donations of sleeping bags and toiletries, as well as volunteers to help staff the shelter’s warming station on the nights they are open.
If you can be a volunteer or have any of the items above, they are needed ASAP.
For more information, contact Rita at 664-3226 at the Calvary Temple Church, or Debbie at 727-1679.
