Thank You to our Donors

Look for  Krispy Kreme donut sales starting February 18, 2021.  These mouth watering donuts are not available in Marion County,  so we are going to bring them fresh to you on February 26, 2021.  To  preorder your box,  call Angela at 352-456-0570 or 352-427-8655.

Yard Sale with all proceeds going to Marion County Homeless Council is scheduled for the second Saturday in March.   Just imagine the treasures you will find and the families you will help with your donation toward this worthy cause. 

Calling all campers.  How much would you pay for a nice warm tent, blanket,  camping gear with soft mattress and all the luxurious comforts that come with being outdoors.  Join our challenge to instead pledge those dollars to help families stay housed.  Spend a night camping with some camping hero's.   Check back for developing details about this adventure and join us in challenging others to camp simple.  .

Check out our Facebook pages MCHCFL or Marion County Homeless Council and help us raise awareness and funds.  Homelessness is not caused simply by laziness,  drug abuse or a desire to be homeless.  Homelessness has many causes like job loss, low wages,  medical expenses  lack of affordable housing options,  unexpected expenses and deaths of wage earners.  Help us spread the word and raise funds to keep or move families into housing.   $10.00 buys a pack of warm socks for  someone sleeping outside during the cold,   30.00 helps a family get to and from medical appointments or jobs,   100.00 helps keep the electricity on in the home and 40.00 pays for water to that home.    

We are working on bringing to you virtual events and want to hear from you.   Leave messages on our facebook page - would you participate in a virtual 5 k,  what about a battle of bands held virtually,  or a socially distanced bike race?   What creative ideas can you come up with to raise awareness and funds to keep families in housing?
