You can help!

Visit our Open House at the Shelter on Wed., Nov. 9, 2011,  from 1:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.  Share your story.  Tell us what Shelter services meant to you or your child or friend.  The Shelter is located at Mississippi & 7th, one block west of Irvine and 2 blocks north of the downtown post office.

If you’ve ever received services from Evergreen or have a friend, family member, or neighbor who has, please make a contribution to support our work.  All gifts are welcome.  No gift is too small…or too large!

Encourage your employer to make a tax deductible contribution to support Evergreen.  We will provide a tax receipt.

Gifts may be mailed to:  Evergreen Youth & Family Services, PO Box 662, Bemidji, MN  56619.  Or, drop your contribution off during Evergreen’s Nov. 9 Open House at the Shelter.

Order Evergreen Holiday Cards to send your family and friends.  Click here to view the card featuring a manger scene with the caption “Homelessness is Getting Old,” drawn by a 9 year-old homeless young artist who stayed at the Evergreen Shelter.  The cost is $12.50 for a package of 25 cards/envelopes.  You may pick them up or enclose $2.00 shipping/handling if you’d like them mailed to you.  Place orders by emailing to kfreed@evergreenhouse.org.  Please include your full name, address, and a daytime phone number.  Indicate how many packages you’d like to order.

If you have any questions, feel free to stop by or contact Matt (766-9180) or call the Drop In Center at 209-2303.
