Summer is just around the corner and with more heat and more homeless than ever before, we need to step up our game if we are going to truly meet the need. In fact, I dedicated our whole newsletter this month to this one topic because the threat is greater than it has ever been.
Our new summer relief campaign, Code Red, is designed to reach out to churches, municipalities and businesses across the valley to raise awareness and address the overwhelming need for heat relief this summer. (For more information on how to help, visit phoenixrecsuemission.org/codered)
But Code Red does more than just distribute water and other heat relief items. When triple-digit temperatures hit, the Mission will also respond by offering daytime shelter hours – providing a cool, air-conditioned respite for those caught out in the desert sun. Here in Phoenix, it’s just as important to find an escape from the blistering afternoon heat as it is to stay hydrated.
And this summer we’ll be working overtime to make sure more men, women and children have access to what they need to stay safe and healthy. Thank you so much for the support that makes this possible and God bless!
