Alpha House Hosting Week / GRAND Opening East Side
Hosting Nov 17- 23/ one meal Nov 27; Grand Opening Nov 18, new East Side Location
Alpha House is a shelter for families experiencing temporary homelessness. Our next host week at Alpha House’s Jackson Road location is November 17 through 23, and also a midday meal on Thanksgiving Day, November 27. Sign up here to donate a dish, help with children’s activities, or be a Meal Captain to help coordinate dinner on one night of the week.
YOU ARE INVITED to the grand opening of the new Alpha House East Side location! Join us on Tuesday, November 18 from 4:00pm to 5:00pm at the Towsley Health Building in Ypsilanti. Appetizers and tours of the new facility will be provided!
Finally, we are collecting items to make kits for the hundreds of families moving into the shelter in the next year! Alpha House has created Amazon wishlists here and here. If you prefer to purchase items at a local store, there is a collection box outside the UUAA office for:
- new twin size bedding (adult, teen, and kid prints)
- new towels and washcloths
- toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, and other personal hygiene items
Every bit helps. And be sure to purchase your scrip for your Amazon, Target, Meijer, or Visa purchases from our UUAA Scrip table.
