The board of directors and staff want to take this opportunity to say thank you
for your generous support of Ruth Meiers Hospitality House, Inc. We have begun planning
for 2006 and even further into the future for the house.
One of the goals that was set for 2006 was to once again provide emergency housing
for single women and families. This goal was accomplished in September when Ruth
Meiers leased a duplex that we are using to house women and children. Although this
duplex does not take care of the total need for this type of emergency shelter,
we are excited to be providing this service to our community on a limited basis.
Ruth Meiers Hospitality House relies on the generous gifts from the community for
approximately 50% of our annual budget. Please know that when you support Ruth Meiers
through your gift of money, volunteer time, ideas and energy you are giving a tremendous
gift to those les fortunate in our community.
Ruth Meiers Hospitality House, Inc. works hard to serve as a living memorial to
the woman for whom it is named. Lieutenant Governor Ruth Meiers. With your help
we are able to do as Ruth Meiers once said,
“It is a fact, that you should give hope to the homeless, provide inspiration
to the impoverished, establish a one to one relationship that strengthens and encourages
individuals, that lifts them from despair.”
We truly believe that “every heart needs a home,” and we are so thankful for your
support that allows us to continue to touch the hearts of the many individuals that
we serve.
