Join SHBHU on the fourth Sunday of every month serving meals with a smile to those experiencing homelessness in the Downtown Raleigh area. OCC is the result of many organizations working together in an effort to help close the hunger gap! SHBHU volunteers will bring food, drinks, take home snacks and paper products to help support those in need. Volunteers arrive at OCC at 12:00pm to help set up the food line and we are usually finished cleaning up about 2:30pm. Volunteers will receive an email a couple days prior with specifics on what to bring with them. Any age can volunteer and serve with a smile!
They are still requiring masks be worn inside.

SHBHU "Breakfast Bags of Love" Compassion Mission for our Senior Citizens and their 4 legged companions DELIVERY DATE Oct 16th

SHBHU “Breakfast Bags of Love”

Ambassadors would like to know if y0u can help pack and decorate these breakfast bags for our Senior Citizens in need who are connected to our friends at Meals on Wheels

Did you know that ¼ of Senior Citizens live alone with their pet as their only companion? Animal companionship is proven to be a powerful relationship that prevents depression and loneliness. However, as people age, caring for an animal can become more difficult physically and financially. These bags we call “breakfast bags of love” not only include food to start their day but also include food for their four-legged companion. When Senior Citizens are looked out for and receive proper nutrition, they can care for their animal companions in the way they deserve. Each of these bags (and donations for their 4 legged companions) contained a morning meal that hopefully takes a little pressure off these Senior Citizens in need. This community is often overlooked and often does not want to be a burden. It can be easy to think a Senior Citizen is doing fine when they are not. While a colorful snack bag can’t solve all the problems the elderly are facing, it can put a smile on their face and assure that they are seen and that someone cares for them. If you are interested in helping with this Compassion Mission please contact Ambassador Isabella at isapease@gmail.com.

We need donations which you can order at the SHBHU AMAZON wish list link below, you can volunteer to pack and decorate bags in your own home or you can volunteer to deliver the bags to Meals on Wheels when they are completed. We will be having another Compassion Meeting in October to pack and decorate bags as well. We also need a Delivery Family to volunteer to bring bags to MOW in Raleigh on Oct 16th Please contact us if interested at info@shbhu.org

Check out these sweet “Breakfast Bags of Love” for our Senior Citizens in need that the youth from The Ethos School made for this ongoing Compassion Mission for Meals on Wheels. Thay also took the time to add a special note even INSIDE each beautifully and compassionately decorated bag of love. Love our community. Check out their mission here. https://www.theethosschool.org/

Hugs for Haiti Compassion Mission is calling all Ambassadors and Small Handers! Haiti needs your help!
The children pictured above have had to move to a new locatioan for their orphanige called “Children’s Village of Drugue”. However they still need our help. Criminal gangs have grown and become increasingly violent due to economic hardship, corruption, political instability, and the effects of natural disasters. Kidnappings for ransom and killings continue to grow. Most likely this will continue in the absence of a stable government. The nonproift “Done In Love” is asking for our assistance in any way! They still need funds for basic necessities for these children. Let’s brainstorm and come up with SHBHU unique and IMPACTFUL ways to show compassion to them! Contact SHBHU or attend the next Compassion Meeting to be a part of this Compassion Mission.
