The Source will officially be open tonight for our first cold weather shelter of the season. We are in need of sleeping bags, pillows, movies, men’s jeans, sweaters, jackets, hoodies, snacks, coffee, creamer, sugar, and hot chocolate. The Source opens for cold night shelter when temperatures are forecasted to drop below 35 degrees Fahrenheit or 40 degrees with rain. Decision for action is usually made by noon of a shelter day. The cost of opening for overnight shelter is $300 per night.
The Source will provide cold night shelter at its facility located at 1015 Commerce Avenue in Vero Beach. Dinner is served at 5:00 pm on shelter days. Guests must arrive no later than 9:00 pm. Breakfast will be provided the following morning.
