Brothers and Sisters,
I hope this finds you well.
The Las Vegas Rescue Mission (LVRM) is a vital non-profit organization established in 1970, dedicated to addressing homelessness in Las Vegas, Nevada. It offers essential services, including emergency shelter, nutritious meals, rehabilitation programs, transitional housing, and outreach efforts. These initiatives not only meet immediate needs but also support long-term recovery and stability for individuals facing homelessness.
We’ve been volunteering the first Thursday of every month to pass out meals. Thanks to all 10 people that showed up: 3 Glaziers, 4 painters with their wives and 1 Floor Coverer. It was heartbreaking to see the families that showed up, to see the kid’s faces, I think we all left grateful for what we have. We struggle with different situations in our lives, we will continue to help the first Thursday of November and December, if you would like to participate, reach out to me.
Supporting the Mission and its volunteer programs is essential for making a meaningful difference in the lives of vulnerable populations.
If you have any questions, please reach out to me.
