As temperatures fall below freezing, Chosen 300 Ministries welcomes the help of Buckman’s Ski Shop & Impact Thrift Stores who provided coats & hats for the homeless.
The City of Philadelphia has issued a code blue and while Chosen 300 works to make sure everyone who needs a place to stay are connected with outreach teams; the homeless’ daily journey is faced with fridged temperatures subjecting these folks to sickness, hospitalization, and possibly even death. Chosen 300 Executive Director, Brian Jenkins says the extra help came just in time to help the homeless battle the cold.
