Last year, almost 1,000 people found refuge in the shelters operated by Synergy Services. With a new Synergy House now open that doubles their capacity for homeless teens, the number of people they serve will grow. Day to day operations of the shelters require many items, which is what 360 and Scott Rice teamed up to help provide.
We created a mini-competition to put each of our groups against each other to see who could raise the most items from Synergy’s needs list. On April 22nd, there was a happy hour to get together and count all the items and everyone was surprised and inspired by the amount that was raised. These things will help clean, feed, clothe, and house a great number of kids and families in the area who need it most.
