‘Hands Across Carson’ fundraiser July 19 to benefit Carson City’s homeless warming shelter program
The nonprofit organization that provides a warming shelter for homeless at Carson City area churches during the winter months is hosting an upcoming “Hands Across Carson” barbecue fundraiser July 19 at the Governor’s Mansion.
Night off the Streets, (aka NOTS), in coordination with multiple Carson City churches, provides homeless persons a warm place to sleep overnight during the cold winter months of November through March.
