September 2019 Newsletter #1

Hello FDDR villagers, great things are happening!

 

But first of all we want to thank ALL for the many donations, help and kind words we receive from You every day.

There is no way we could do all this without your help.

Thank You, Thank You!

 

On July 19, 2019 we became a public Non Profit Charity organization 501(c)3!

This is a huge step forward to better serve our family in need on the streets.

 

We also created a new website www.FDDR.org to share our mission with the world for all to see.

 

Be a link in the chain of Change!

And together with all of You we DO make a Change.

FDDR is growing bigger every day and sadly the number of homeless and hungry people is growing too, Every day we see new faces and we constantly run out of "bags of food" to feed them.

Sure our bus "ZIGGY" with big signs on both sides, plays also a part in letting people know what we do, with Your help, on a daily basis. Please keep sharing the live feeds and our pages every day.

 

Serving meals is our primary goal and our biggest need right now are cooks, people that signup on our mealtrain to prepare a meal, even if it's for a small amount of meals.10, 20, 30 or more ANY number helps FDDR a lot and makes it possible to feed more hungry people on the street.

Are you able to cook a meal alone or with friends/family for the Homeless?

Upcoming Changes and Events

Changes to the daily Feed

 

The biggest change after we served 500 days in a row is that starting September 1st we will not go out on Sundays no more, this allows us to have more time for pickups and sort the donations we receive from many viewers.

Another thing that we have to address is that lately we run out of meals almost every day, why we are going to change the start of the feed every other day.

Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday we are going to do our normal route like we do now, and on Tuesday, Thursday we are going to start the feed in Corktown what allows us to serve the ones in need in downtown Detroit and Mexican town at the end.

Brrrr The cold is coming!

 

Cold days and nights are upon us, imagine being  outside 24/7. It is a reality for our family on the streets of greater Detroit.

 

Let us come all together and collect blankets, hand-warmers, tents, coats, boots (size 9 - 13) and did we say blankets?

so that the homeless can cover themselves to warmup a bit.

Most needed items

 

Water, Snacks, Sweets, Chips, Canned vegetables, Spaghetti sauce, To-Go containers.

Hoodies, Sweat pants/shirts, Socks, Gloves, Boots,

 

Many of these items you can find on our wish-list or make a monetary donation via check, gift-card, Cash.me/HelpFDDR or  www.PayPal.me/HelpFDDR to sponsor a meal or operating costs.
