South Lake Tahoe, Calif. – The Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless invites the South Shore community to attend their second annual Warm Room Open House on Wednesday, February 22 from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at 2179 Lake Tahoe Boulevard, South Lake Tahoe. The Warm Room provides overnight refuge from the elements in a safe and warm environment for adult men and women who are experiencing homelessness.

The Open House offers visitors a chance to tour the 2016-2017 space of operation, to meet volunteers and Board members, and to ask questions about the program and homelessness in our community.

This year, City Councilwoman/Mayor Pro Tem Wendy David will be honored. She has been a driving force in the community to provide this basic, necessary temporary shelter to those in housing insecurity during the dangerously cold season.

Share the love! In addition, donations of the following are welcomed:

• Cup O Noodles
• Instant oatmeal packets
• Individually wrapped - cheese sticks, yogurt, crackers, cookies, granola bars, nuts, dried fruit
• Hot drinks – bulk coffee, hot cocoa packets, hot cider packets, hot tea packets
• Condiments – creamer, sugar
• Gift Cards – Amazon, Grocery Outlet, Costco, Safeway, Raley’s, Smart & Final
• Cleaning supplies – Lysol spray and disinfecting wipes, Pine Sol
