South Suburban PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) has been
providing emergency overnight shelter in the southern suburbs since
1990. It is an ecumenical effort that serves homeless men, women and
children with hospitality, compassion and dignity. At shelters located
in a number of churches and synagogues in eleven communities, PADS
provides food, warmth and encouragement to guests who are in need of
shelter during the cold weather months. |
ONLY
4 HOURS A MONTH can make a huge difference in the lives of others.
To be a PADS' volunteer from United Christian Church, call Gloria
