SPOKANE, Wash. – City of Spokane has been preparing shelters for the homeless as harsh winter conditions pose danger for those outside.
New Mayor of Spokane, Lisa Brown announced a state of emergency for the cold conditions. This opened new doors for resources for those who might be living on the street.
Adding additional warming shelter and beds is a priority for city officials as new data shows that unsheltered population was up 16% from last year.
With the rise in the population the demand for need follows. To donate to the City of Spokane to aid them in their efforts visit their website here.
