Welcome to Lake Area Bank's Shelter Collection
November 2 thru December 18, 2020
In a 2018 study, there were roughly 19,600 Minnesotans experiencing homelessness on a single night. While the study covers data collected before the COVID-19 outbreak, it shows the depth of the problem that seems likely to worsen with increased unemployment as a result of the virus.
Lake Area Bank's core focus is to make a difference in people's lives. During these times of uncertainty, we want to do our part to assist those in need and the increased demand at shelters in our local communities.
You can help WIPE OUT homelessness! During 11/02/20 - 12/18/20, Lake Area Bank will collect toilet paper, Kleenex and paper towels for distribution to local shelter organizations. In addition to collecting these basic-need items in our branch locations, please consider donating to Solid Ground.
Through safe, affordable housing and innovative supportive programming, Solid Ground helps families break the cycle of homelessness and poverty for the next generation. Solid Ground currently runs six programs in suburban Ramsey and Washington Counties housing nearly 400 women, men and children annually.
