First of 200,000 Meals

On October 1st, the Emergency Winter Shelter (managed by Charlotte Rescue Mission) opened its doors to provide emergency services for Charlotte's homeless. Throughout its 6 month operation, Charlotte Rescue Mission will provide about 80% of the meals to be served there which means our daily meals will increase from 400 to 600.

Over the course of a year, we will serve about 200,000 meals and October 1st is just the beginning. Check out this coverage and video from WBTV News Channel 3.
