You might remember back in March, we told you about a program that the City of Boise was starting to help put the homeless to work. It's worked so well that it's growing.
As the weather starts to change and temperatures drop, Boise's Interfaith Sanctuary is expanding their hours to better serve families in need during the cold of winter.
Imagine being outside for the entire day under the Idaho sun. Now add to the fact that you have no way to stay cool or prevent a sunburn. The homeless are in need of your donations during the hot summer months.
A Boise teen has come up with a new recipe involving chicken and cheese that sounds pretty awesome, and she did it to help our homeless population. It makes a batch big enough to serve a huge crowd, so you may want to try it too at your next big event too.
I love seeing things like this. The Boise Parks and Recreation Department has received the "go-ahead" from the City Council to hire 10 residents of the Interfaith Sanctuary Shelter.
If you've got someone on your list that has everything and you don't know what to get 'em, how about something truly unique and hand-crafted. And help Boise's homeless population at the same time. The first night of the event this week is sold out, but there are still tickets left for the second night.
