Shelter Up and Running

When temperatures sink below 32 degrees, there is one place in Brandon that heats up!  The Cold Weather Shelter, located at the Brandon Recreation Center, is up and running for it's 3rd season.  
Volunteers work in 4 shifts from 6pm to 7 am in order to provide a warm place for the homeless to eat, sleep, and relax.  What an amazing opportunity to slow down, drink a good cup of coffee and listen to life stories that are beyond interesting.  
You can be involved by volunteering at the shelter, donating coffee or blankets, or even preparing a 6 am pancake breakfast!  Join us as we invite our neighbors to come in out of the cold.
