The Salvation Army of Sidney will soon begin renovating part of its facility in preparation to host homeless families of Shelby County. This Transitional Family Housing program will be the first of its kind in the area. This is not any kind of rehab or place for transients to come in for the night, this program is for pre-screened families, many of whom have small children. "It's to help people get back on their feet; to give them a hand up, not a hand out," said Major Herb Carter of the Salvation Army.

Though the building funds were raised back in 1994, funds will still be needed for operation. Monies raised during the Annual Maintenance Appeal will go for the operation of this and the Salvation Army's other local programs.

By donating your old cell phone to Artemis Center, you can save a life. As a way to assert control, abusers often deny cell phone access to their partners. With the help of Verizon’s HopeLine program, victims of domestic violence receive refurbished cell phones to be used as 911 emergency phones. These phones are critical to the safety of Artemis Center’s clients. Used cell phones can be dropped off at Artemis Center Monday through Friday 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
For more information: call 937-461-5091 or visit Artemis Center
