Homeless Shelter’s Bustle in bad weather

Helping in the back of the shelter
By: Karen Crystal
When winter rains pound in Thousand Oaks and Westlake, where do the homeless find a place with a roof? The Lutheran Social Services’ winter homeless shelter in Thousand Oaks is one option. On December 1st, during one of our biggest winter storms, 20 people checked in for a hot meal and a dry place to lay down.
People struggling financially are urged to come to dinner once in a while to save some grocery money and avoid falling behind on rent.
The homeless can use a multitude of donations such as backpacks, hamburger gift coupons, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shaving cream, deodorant, shampoo, soap and razors. You can drop these items at, 80 E. Hillcrest Drive, Thousand Oaks. For more information, call (805) 497-6207.
