Big News!

Uptown Shelter and the Emergency Winter Shelter are merging! We held a joint press conference this morning so look for us on the local news. I must express my appreciation for the work done by both boards of directors. Throughout this process the homeless men we both serve were foremost on their minds. I am excited about this announcement because I know that together we can do more to meet the needs of men experiencing homelessness in our community. I am also excited about working with John White, the EWS Shelter Director. To learn more check out both websites and Face Book pages (www.UptownShelter.org and www.ewscharlotte.org). Once I've had a chance to slow down a bit I'll share more about this important milestone on this blog.
