Humanitarian Support Foundation Team Members Volunteered At The Genesis Shelter During Their Halloween Feast

GenisisOn Thursday October 30th, Global Children’s Humanitarian Foundation (Humanitarian Support Foundation) team members went to the Genesis Shelter, to serve up scary scrumptious food and pass out some terrifyingly tasty treats to the residents and their young children as a part of a Halloween feast. We also dropped off all items we collected in our October month long drive that we held at our building. We collected items such as diapers, formula, sheets, baby wipes, hygiene products, etc.

The Genesis Shelter, a key program of Our House Inc., is a shelter for homeless newborn babies under six months of age and their families.  Genesis’ stated mission is “To provide a supportive environment that enables homeless newborns and their families achieve positive life outcomes for this generation and those to come.”

Humanitarian Support Foundation team members served residents spaghetti and meatballs, garlic bread, Caesar salad, fruit salad and cookies in addition to handing out bags of treats to all the children.

While all the team members helped make this evening enjoyable, one team member shone brightest with the shelter residence.  Children and adults alike were enamored with Taylor Littlefield, possibly for his endearing personality, but more likely due to his SpongeBob SquarePants costume.  Taylor endured kicks and punches to the costume, held babies, and posed for dozens of photos while bringing smiles to lots of faces at the shelter.  A special thank you to Taylor for your enthusiasm and effort and to all the people that donated in the October drive. The Genesis Shelter was beyond excited with all the items we brought for them.

Humanitarian Support Foundation has been volunteering at the Genesis Shelter for several years now and supports the Genesis shelter and its mission with time, funds and odds to make the lives of its residents a little bit easier.  As it has been every time, this was an overwhelmingly positive experience for all involved and team members are already talking about when we can get back to the shelter to volunteer again.
