Gratitude & Generosity
By Irit Umani
The theme that we chose for this year is “Gratitude & Generosity,” and I can immediately start with my own gratitude for your generosity. Many of you, in so many ways, show us generosity. With your time, with your resources, financial and otherwise, with your spiritual and emotional support, with your LOVE.

Well, my friends, we did not end homelessness in year 2016. Will we ever? Research of best practices strongly suggests that Permanent Supportive Housing and Housing First are the two major approaches to reach this lofty goal.

The other day I was at my computer answering e-mails, when I heard loud sobbing sound, almost wailing, coming from the small Chapel that is next to my office. I moved there to see what was happening and how I could help.

2015 was a year of stability and growth for Trinity Center. There were no changes to staff and to my knowledge all are planning to continue. I am deeply grateful to Emily, Diane, Lindsey, David as well as to our contracted security guard Tory and our AmeriCorps Volunteer Alex. Two years of no change in staff gives a sense of stability and continuity. Their level of dedication and professional conduct are commendable.

It’s a few days since our fundraising event, in which we remembered the late Barbara Jordan and Rev. Pat Hazel, while celebrating Trinity Center with our larger community of friends, volunteers, board members and many of our financial supporters.
