| ULLRs Help at Project Homeless Connect By Margo Dinneen What a wonderful team we had serving Project Homeless Connect at the Minneapolis Convention Center on Monday, May 20th! Ten of us ULLRs plus one from our church not only volunteered from 8:00 to 4:00 but also attended a required 1-1/2 hour training program at Southdale, Ridgedale, or Brookdale Library during the week beforehand. We each had the opportunity to guide our guests so they could accomplish many needed priorities: resume' writing, access to education, employment and housing needs; dental, medical, opthamology, and legal help; birth certificates, Minnesota photo IDs, driver's license applications; haircuts, etc. Our hearts were touched with big smiles as their goals were met, one by one! Ten of us shared a fun happy hour at nearby Porter and Frye's afterward. A HUGE thank you to each of you who stepped forward to make our Minneapolis a better place to live! Many thanks to Margo and Jon for inviting ULLRs to participate in this event and for helping us have a good day while we were helping our guests. |
