[Lekooks] Family Promise Updates and Volunteer Opportunities

[Gina Magnus]

Good Afternoon All,

Family Promise of Waukesha County will continue to focus on homelessness
prevention for the next few months.  We do not find ourselves being able to
pick up with the rotational model of housing that we have used in the
past.  The Executive Director, Joe Nettesheim, is meeting with others from
around the country to see what they are doing and a few other hosting
models have been suggested.  We have no plans to host families until
Sept/Oct and even that is in question.

Please see below for a portion of an email from Joe:

2. Tonight, June 17 at 6:30pm is our town hall meeting. It will be on a
zoom meeting and facebook live. Register or submit questions to
info at familypromisewaukesha.org is preferred. If you can please invite your
volunteers that would be helpful.

3. It became evident last night that we probably do not have the email for
all of your volunteers. Could you ask them to fill out this contact form so
we can update our volunteer list?

5. This Saturday is a Night Without a Bed. It is an adaptation of box city-
where people sleep outside to simulate homelessness. It is mainly to raise
awareness. I invite you to join me and share about your experience on
social media using the hashtag #NightWithoutaBed

6. The golf outing is scheduled for August 10.  Thank you First
Congregational UCC!  Visit this page to find all the info you need
regarding information, registration, payment and becoming a sponsor

7. We continue to work through the contingencies on our offer to purchase a
new location. It is looking positive. I am cautiously optimistic.

8. We are starting to plan our move. Christina will be packing up the day
center in July hopefully with help from volunteers. If you are interested
in helping let her know. We would limit the group to 2-3 people at a time.

Thank you for your support and commitment to Family Promise. Please do not
hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.
