The
Oasis Trust (UKOrganization)
About:- Oasis demonstrates that Christian faith
works
by delivering practical solutions to the breadth of people's needs
wherever
they are encountered.
Oasis Outreach volunteers make contact with
people
who are homeless in London. Teams go out twice a week to befriend
people
on the streets and to offer advice and information on services that are
available
to them.
Did you know?........
40% of rough sleepers have been
assaulted.
Homeless people are often assaulted
or
have their personal belongings stolen when they are at their most
vulnerable
such as sleeping. Sadly, most of the time they are not assaulted
by
other homeless people but by other members of the general public.
Interested in volunteering? You will need to be:
over 18 years old
living in or near London
a committed Christian
able to commit an evening a week on a regular basis

A
Christian Homeless Rehabilitation Shelter (USA Washington City)
About:- The Mission was founded in 1941 by Burt
McCausland,
a local ministor and businessman, to serve those who remained homeless
due
to the Depression.
The Mission began in a simple store front, but moved to its current
location
in 1963. Today our primary service delivery area is Washington, Greene,
Fayette,
and Southwestern Allegheny counties.
In the beginning, homeless men were the primary recipients of services.
However,
in 1986, the Mission opened the Avis Arbor Women's Shelter to meet the
needs
of the fastest growing homeless population -- women and children.
Through the years, the Mission has expanded its programs to better
server
an ever-expanding number of people. However, what has never changed is
the
commitment to share the love and Word of Jesus Christ to all who pass
through
our doors.
Volunteers:- Volunteers are a very important
part of
our ministry at Washington City Mission. We could not have helped
poor
and homeless for 59 years if it were not for the help of volunteers. No

Mission!

collaborative
organization of individuals, Lakewood churches, businesses and civic

The organization was begun in 1982 as twelve Lakewood churches combined
their
resources to provide a Hunger Center for local residents. Soon after
its
founding the volunteers made a commitment to address the deeper
questions
of why clients were coming in need of food. Throughout its history the
Center
has been dedicated to addressing the needs of Lakewood citizens who are
jobless,
hungry, and/or in crisis. The Center provides job-search assistance;
emergency
