Homeless individuals in 91大黄鸭 are getting a helping hand with a recent donation from Rocky Mountain Fitness.
91大黄鸭鈥檚 Gospel Mission鈥檚 staff were presented with $5,000 from the company, a supplier of fitness equipment.
The mission relies on donations from the community to run its 90-bed emergency shelter and programs to help men and women move forward in their lives. Serving between 500 and 600 meals every day it is no small task to keep the charity running, according to the Gospel Mission.
鈥淔undraising for any non-profit is a constant challenge so when someone in the community steps up and says 鈥業 want to help鈥� it is always appreciated and valued. It is the great people in our city that make sure no one goes hungry and that people are cared for in their time of need,鈥� said development director Mike Morrison of the Gospel Mission.
鈥淲e not only passionate about helping people to be the best they can physically but we also want to give back to our community,鈥� said Rob Spencer, branch manager at Rocky Mountain Fitness. 鈥淓specially the people who are struggling just to put food on the table and a roof over their head. We care about people without homes and want to be part of the solution.鈥�
