Nomad Alliance Unsheltered Holiday Supply Drive and Banquet
Lets all work together as a community to build a bigger table that serves our most vulnerable unsheltered people.”
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, USA, December 5, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Event: "Lets Build A Bigger Table" Holiday Banquet.— Kseniya Kniazeva
What: We are providing food, clothes and other needed services to hundreds of unsheltered people and their families.

The Supply Drive will be supplying clothing, blankets, tents, hygiene items and hot, home-cooked meals, haircuts, hot showers plus legal and online support.

When: December 4, 2022 at 3:30 PM.
Where: Greyhound Station, 300 South 600 West
Why: According to Utah State auditors "... the number of unsheltered individuals has also grown nearly 200% since 2016". 77 families with hundreds of children could not find shelter 2 months ago and need food and clothing to survive the freezing Utah nights.
Who: Nomad Alliance Org. https://www.nomadalliance.org/
Nomad Alliance Org. strongly believes the Government is not doing enough to provide adequate shelter, food, clothing and medical supplies to our Unsheltered community. Nomad Alliance Executive Director, Kseniya Kniazeva adds, “Just last month one of our team members saw a family with four or five children, all under 11, setting up a camp outside a human resource center. The mother looked shell shocked, newly homeless, carrying their life processions in a plastic wagon. This is not okay.”
Kniazeva continues: "Lets all work together as a community to build a bigger table that serves our most vulnerable unsheltered people. Our Supply Drive last month served food and distributed warm clothing to close to 500 unsheltered people and their children. There was such a large demand we ran out of food. The Utah Government has increased the number of beds for the unsheltered but its not nearly enough. We rely on our dedicated volunteers and depend solely on private donations since we receive no Government funding."
