Civic Center 'Day of Dignity' To Provide Essential Services For The Homeless

"We will have a table, or 'market', where guests can fill reusable tote bags with everything they need, from socks to deodorant, bus passes, shampoo, new bras, lotion, and more," Simply the Basics founder Meghan Freebeck explains. 

Simply the Basics will also ensure that their table is staffed with volunteers trained in providing emotional support and crisis care. "We never want to assume what someone needs, and events like this allow people to choose their most needed items with additional support and care," Freebeck said.
