12/11/13 - A local agency that works to warm the hearts and homes of area families facing heat-related emergencies has received an unexpected boost in donations from an area church. The 2/42 Community Church presented The Oakland Livingston Human Service Agency with a $10,000 donation toward its Homelessness Campaign, which OLHSA and several other agencies are part of. OLHSAâs Director of Livingston County Services Ericka Karfonta tearfully accepted the check, and a video has since been posted on You Tube. In it, a 2/42 official notes the importance of the work OLHSA does; saying sometimes people get caught up in their day-to-day routines and perhaps might not realize some of the things happening in their own communities. Meanwhile, OLHSA's Walk for Warmth will take place February 22nd at the Hartland Educational Support Service Center and teams of walkers are encouraged to sign up and start fundraising. Details about the homelessness campaign and Walk for Warmth can be found through the link and flyer below. (JM)
