[SDCPJ] VFP Homeless Flier - Please Forward

It is hard to believe the number of people living on our streets with next to nothing.  Please consider a donation, and send this to everyone you know.  $35.00 will keep someone warm to face another day. Dave Patterson Ramona 760-207-9139     GIVE A HOMELESS PERSON IN DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO A WARM SLEEPING BAG, A PONCHO, AND A STUFF SACK TONIGHT FOR $35!! There are now about 4,000 homeless folks in San Diego County, with many of them located downtown on the streets. Many of them are the "newly homeless" and have nothing other than the clothes that they are wearing. The nights can be very cold and wet. The San Diego Veterans For Peace, a local 501-C-3 veterans educational organization, has created a "Compassion Campaign" to provide the homeless downtown with a set of a sleeping bag, poncho, and nylon stuff sack, which will help make their life immensely better while they are homeless. Veterans from our chapter are downtown on the streets each week giving out sets of sleeping bags/ponchos/stuff sacks to those most in need and can purchase and distribute each set for only $35. With your donations, we have to date provided 420 sets of gear to the neediest homeless and hope to continue this campaign indefinitely. 100% of the money donated buys gear, as we have no administrative or overhead expenses. For information about our campaign, please check out: www.sdvfp.org Or call 858-342-1964.
