2009 Brick by Brick Campaign

 

You can pave the way to open the front doors of the long-awaited

permanent home for IHN.

IHN is only steps away from opening its new

family day center. We would like to give members

of our congregations and synagogues, as

well as members of the Chattanooga community,

the opportunity to be recognized for the countless

hours of service these individuals have given

to the families we serve.

Each paver will cost $100 and can be given in honor or memory of a loved one. A form is provided

as an insert to the newsletter, as well as on our Web site:

 

www.ihnchattanooga.org

.

Thank you for helping to end homelessness in Chattanooga one family at a time.

2009 Grateful Gobbler

Please join us for the annual Thanksgiving

Grateful Gobbler walk, roll and stroll to

benefit the homeless. The walk begins and

ends at Coolidge Park. For more information

about registration, call the Chattanooga

Regional Homeless Coalition at 752-4807.

Congregations

 

IHN works though the cooperative partnerships of over 40 congregations which enlist 100 volunteers each week. IHN operates 365 days and nights each year. Every evening, IHN has two congregations that host homeless families in unused classrooms or other available space. Evening meals, lodging and activities are provided by congregation volunteers.

Rachel and her Children

Book Review

To write this "jolting firsthand report," Kozol spent months among the homeless, whose depressing stories, interwoven with his commentaries, tell of infant deaths, malnutrition, hunger, loss of dignity and desperation. "This powerful volume," PW maintained, " forces one to ask: 'What are our national priorities?' "
