We Appreciate Our Volunteers!

Monday, April 19th, 2010

We want to express our deep and heart-felt thanks to you for your wonderful and generous gifts of time, energy and support as a volunteer at Union Station Homeless Services. You are an integral part of the success of every aspect of our work. Without your dedication, our many programs to help rebuild the lives of men, women and children simply would not be possible.

As an individual volunteer, or a member of one of more than eighty community Adopt-a-Meal groups, you truly have been instrumental in Union Station’s ability to serve over 170,000 meals a year, including the 8,500 meals served at our Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinners-in-the-Park! Or, perhaps you are one of our volunteers who offer their professional expertise to improve the lives of our clients. Maybe you answer our phones, help with data entry or provide the person-power to produce our mass mailings. Perhaps your group has organized a food drive or donated other gifts-in-kind which offset the cost of our programs.

Whatever your role here, we are sincerely grateful for your participation as a volunteer. Your efforts are essential to the success and well-being of Union Station as we work together toward our lifesaving goal of helping our clients achieve a permanent end to their homelessness.

With warmest wishes,

Margo Kidushim
Chair, Board of Directors

Marvin M. Gross
CEO

Happy New Year! I am thrilled to share with you that your support enabled Union Station Homeless Services to meet our December fund raising goal! Thank you so much for your commitment and generosity. 

The past couple of months have been busy and exciting at Union Station. Thanks to you we were able to: 

  • -Serve a combined total of 8,400 meals at our Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinners-in-the-Park and distribute toys to 2,000 children at Christmas;
  • -Provide 20 aspiring cooks with new skills and confidence through the beginning and advanced Culinary Arts classes at our Adult Center;
  • -Begin plans for two innovative new housing programs, which will provide homeless individuals and families with the resources they need to rebuild their lives beyond our shelter walls. (Stay tuned for more details.)

Please accept our profound gratitude for your support. As a friend of Union Station, you are a vital part of the life-saving work we do. 

Warmest wishes for a healthy and fulfilling 2010. 

Sincerely, 

Marvin M. Gross
