Event Description The Coalition is now the largest provider of homeless services in Central Florida. Our mission is to address the needs of the homeless in our community and to serve as a catalyst for community collaboration to end homelessness. The Coalition is able to help nearly 600 people each day. one of the few emergency shelters that accept intact families in Central Florida. On any given night, the Coalition provides services to nearly 200 children, with an average age of seven years old. Last year, the Coalition served nearly 302,000 meals. But the Coalition doesn’t provide just a safety net for emergencies. Our goal is to return our residents to self-sufficiency through counseling, job training, and educational programs. While our clients work to reestablish productive lives, we provide transitional housing and daycare for their children until they are ready to move back into the community.
We will be working with the youth at Coalition for the Homeless. Since it is Spring, we will have a Spring themed day of fun with the kids. We will be meeting on Mills Lawn at 1:30 and returning around 4:30; we will be carpooling to the event. Come show your love for the children at coalition for the homeless!
