The fourth Saturday February twenty eight

We will be meeting as a collective group this Saturday @ 5pm in the Vineyard Parking lot at 2225 19th street. We will head out from there to spread some love and hope to the people living out on the streets. If you have anything that you would like to contribute it would be great. We have a great contribution of 100 Chick Fillet sandwiches from The Peterson's. I will be bringing a big batch of chocolate chip cookies. If anyone can bring water or non perishable food items, We always can use warm clothing, Socks, Gloves, Beanies, Blankets, Rain Ponchos, Anything to provide warmth to those living on the streets. If you do not have anything to Bring just bring yourself. These are just ideas of things that they are in need of. Also There will be an interesting thing on Oprah today with Lisa Ling about Homelessness and Tent Cities and she will be Covering Sacramento. Tune in at 4pm today on Chanel 3 or Tonight at 9pm on Chanel 58.

Tent Cities in America: A Lisa Ling Special Reporthttp://www.oprah.com/dated/oprahshow/oprahshow_20090218_recessionCorrespondent Lisa Ling brings us the new faces of the recession. The desperate search for work, a hot meal, a place to sleep. Meet families who are struggling every day to get by.The spiraling economy and the foreclosure crisis are causing an increasing number of middle-class Americans to suffer. On today's show,Lisa Ling investigates the emergence of tent cities-makeshift temporary shelters set up by people who simply have nowhere else to go. Ourcameras follow a family that went from living in a condo and driving a Lincoln Navigator a year ago to sleeping in homeless shelters and carrying all their possessions in garbage bags. Then, hear from a woman who was making $70,000 a year and is facing eviction. Get an inside lookat how more and more families are struggling every day just to get by.We believe, in the words of Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter,that sunshine is the best disinfectant. We hope that those who see this show and its sad and shocking depiction of the pain of homelessness will be motivated to both seek solutions and to help the families and individuals who are homeless now. We will have a special page set up on Loaves & Fishes website by Wednesday for those who wish to help:www.sacloaves.org
