From the FB group page for John's Angels:
We continue our advocacy and volunteering in the homeless community. As our numbers have increased so much we are looking at putting together a team to help organize within our group. If you are interested and it’s available to you please join our FB group for John's Angels - https://www.facebook.com/groups/494942456143594
Each member is valued for whatever they can contribute. Not everyone is capable and will want to go out with us.
Here are some of the ways we can collectively work in this group to show support:
- donate and/or collect donations (sorting thru before we deliver is great as some items might not be in great shape or possibly for the wrong season)
- we always welcome monetary donations (small or large) at Kelowna.johns.angels@gmail.com
We use these to purchase food and drinks, handwarmers, tarps & other supplies we may be short of
-with winter coming up we try to make some homemade soups and baking to deliver , and always appreciate what the volunteers can make or contribute
- we are always looking for anyone with connections to restaurants or cooks that are willing to donate or provide us with food at a special rate
- as you get more familiar our hope is that people will be comfortable posting their own events and small groups to go out with
We generally go in small groups of 4-6 as it’s easier to have direct contact with the people and organize the food/supplies we bring out. Anyone who would like to go sometime as a first experience with us is welcome. We will post events on this site as to day and time and you can sign up. The ideal situation would be getting groups out on different day and times. We’re aware that people are working so may not be able to join a group going out mid day.
