Volunteers of America and Leavenhouse
Leavenhouse published it's final newspaper this month. For those unaware, for 26 years Leavenhouse has provided meals and transitional housing for Camden's homeless. Volunteers of America will assume the housing duties but the soup kitchen and breakfast program are closing. There are more options for meals in the city now that there were when Leavenhouse started. A bouquet of roses for all those who volunteered at Leavenhouse over the years, for all the good work they have done. Best wishes to the Volunteers of America as they take on this responsibility.
