meadowsmary+FollowAmes shelter project needs community to move forwardConcrete is poured, windows and doors are ready, but Ames’ new homeless shelter sits unfinished—stalled by a $3.2 million debt. The Bridge Home’s ambitious plan to expand emergency housing has hit a wall, and now the nonprofit is asking for real community support to get things moving again. With the project’s future—and more beds for those in need—on the line, leaders say every bit of help counts, whether it’s a donation or volunteering. What do you think: Should the shelter scale back, or can Ames rally together to finish what’s started? #Safety #Ames #HomelessShelter00Share
Richard Jones+FollowSupport local shelters with a simple teeEvery purchase of a limited-edition t-shirt is helping to keep the doors open longer at our local men’s homeless shelter. Right now, the shelter can only operate two days a week, but with enough community support, that could change. It’s a small way to make a big difference—grab a shirt online and know you’re directly helping neighbors in need. What other creative ways could we rally together to support essential services like this? Let’s hear your ideas! #Safety #SupportLocal #HomelessShelter00Share
