1/16/2010 – Shelter Spotlight

I’m Sure You Are All Nice & Nuzzeled Up Watching Football On The First Day Of The NFL Divisional Playoffs, And I’m Sure You Enjoyed The Colts & Saints Winning Their Games. I Had Few Friends With Some Cash On The Games Which always Rock, And As A Result of Me Winning A Non Monetary Bet On One Of The Games, I Got To Pick Tonight’s City Of Choice. That City Is Kansas City, MO And Today’s Shelter Spotlight Will Feature City Union Mission.

The City Union Mission demonstrates not only an atmosphere of care, but also an enviroment that helps the homeless and the hungry by supplying clothes and food. Founded in 1924, the City Union Mission is located at 1100 East 11th Street, Kansas City, MO. They Can Be Reached By Phone At (816) 474-4599.

“Since 1924, City Union Mission has provided warm beds, nutritious food and a place of safety for thousands of poverty stricken and homeless men, women and children. Founded by Rev. and Mrs. David Bulkley, the Mission’s staff has been uncompromising in their commitment to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the hurting and the lost. City Union Mission receives no government support and is not a United Way agency”. – From Their Website – http://www.cumission.org

A Holiday Guide – For The Less Fortunate

We at Hatter & Beanz have thought of something interesting and, even though our idea may not be so unique it’s something for those who may be less fortunate or those that may have been hit hard by the economic downfall.  

So readers, as we give thanks for our families, our friends and the roofs over our heads we have built for you a list of soup kitchens and shelters and services in each of the 50 states. (Oh by the way, we personally checked each reference).

So here’s how this is going down, we’re going to sort this by state, and right now our goal is to list one or two organizations by per state for this year. At Christmas, we’ll add one or two more, per state.
