500K+ Americans are homeless. 37 million are at risk of hunger. This is our reality during Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week.

Every person deserves food + shelter. Let's end poverty: volunteer, donate: csb.org/donate, & post #HHWeek. Action starts with awareness.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

121 affordable homes are coming to the former YMCA in downtown Columbus — a strong step toward housing stability.

It’s not a YMCA project, but it’s the kind of deeply affordable housing we need. Housing ends homelessness. https://bit.ly/4mFcpGV
