Beyond the meal is a miracle —
Seeds of hope sprout in Yakima's Extreme Winter Weather Shelters
The numbers are cold, but the people weren't.
Thank you to Yakima City Council, our churches, our civic volunteers, and the community at large for supporting a
second season of Extreme Winter Weather Shelters for people who are homeless. Your combined caring made a
difference.
Between Nov. 21, 2007, and March 31, 2008, 253 trained volunteers provided 2,809 overnight accommodations in
the shelters approved by Yakima City Council for The Stone Church, Vineyard Christian Fellowship of Yakima, and
First Baptist Church of Yakima. That's a lot of bed making, sheet washing, supervising, serving meals, and just
plain staying up all night.
Start to finish, the project tallied 10,698 donated hours. Given a conservative value of $10/hour, this contribution of
volunteer time was worth $106,980. Donations of cash, food, and supplies added another $28,764 to the effort.
What's the return on such an investment?
In very practical terms, some of the shelters' guests found housing and some found jobs through their contacts with
the Extreme Weather project. For others, the outcomes were less specific, but no less real.
The Extreme Winter Weather Shelters offer more than a hot meal and a warm bed. For many, they open a long
closed door to hope. They create a place where connections - even reconnections - can happen.
In the hours between dusk and dawn, the shelter's guests shed the anonymous stereotype of homelessness. They
regain personal identities hidden by life on the streets. All told, it's a thoroughly humanizing experience for those
who need help and for those who respond.
The Extreme Winter Weather Shelters are places where people from diverse backgrounds can talk and listen and
take the first steps toward solving problems. For those whose support systems are as full of holes as last year's
socks, the shelters offer evidence that people do care ... that help is available ... that good things can happen when
we all, come in out of the cold and remember that what we have in common is far greater than whatever might divide
us. For the community at large, the seasonal shelters represent a first step toward achieving affordable permanent
housing for all the people who call Yakima their home.
Thanks to all of you for understanding the year round value that the Extreme Winter Weather Shelters add to the
health and well -being of our community.
