	NEWS AND EVENTS

Generating hope has good news for the homeless in Wapato, Thanks to David Hacker we have a building to use to house and offer services to the homeless, named NOAH'S ARK.

As of right now we are open during the day. We are working on the sprinkler system so we can be open at night, for winter is almost apon as.

We offer meals, showers, an address so they can recieve mail, a phone so they can make appointments or call their families, we have one TV that plays movies and one that has cable, we also have a pool table. Through Donations we have clothing, blankets, food.

The staff is here to keep order and to listen to those who need help.

We give rides when no other transportation is available.

Most of those in Wapato have addictions so we try to encourage them to seek help.
