The Once-A-Month Church was awarded $1,000 grant for the leadership program
The Streets of Gold Leadership Program holds a workshop each month at a local restaurant. Many of our participants suffer from mental illness, substance abuse and chronic homelessness. Our participants receive lunch, encouragement and up-to-date community resources. They are equipped as Good News Leaders for their peers on the street. The Streets of Gold Leadership Program has become one where the homeless are reaching the homeless in helping to decrease the suffering of poverty.
Grant Amount: $500 for the November workshop/$500 for our December workshop.
40 people x $10 each = $400
Transportation / Bus passes and gas for van $100
Total for November and December Workshops $1,000
