“Inside a downtown Columbus church on Dec. 18, more than 160 people will be recognized.

Their names will be read aloud, a bell rung in each person's honor.

They are people who have died in Columbus in 2025 while experiencing homelessness.”

Extreme cold is expected this weekend, with potential snow in the forecast. No one should have to face it alone. Warming centers and shelters across Columbus are open to provide a safe place to stay warm. See the graphic for locations.
