Homelessness Shifts as Meals Surge | Augusta Georgia News

Homelessness in Augusta is shifting fast—women and kids now make up the majority of those seeking shelter, while food costs soar, straining the Salvation Army’s resources. With 60,000–70,000 meals served annually, the Center of Hope is counting on community donations to keep feeding everyone in need. This September, they’re partnering with Centro Cristiano OasisVIP and Oasis Radio 97.3 FM for a major food drive—canned veggies, beans, pasta, and rice are urgently needed. Drop off donations at the Center of Hope, Kroc Center, any Family Store, or during OasisVIP services. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
