Windermere Foundation is happy to support Volunteers of America and their Crosswalk GED program. This program provides one on one instructor who teaches for more than just a test. Last month (2/22) they had 9 graduates. In 2021, 46% of students who graduated went on to higher education. Students also receive wrap around services including food, transportation, housing assistance and school supplies.
This is the Spokane Windermere Foundations first year working with Greater Good Northwest and we are so happy to see what they are doing in the CVSD.

In June, Truth Ministries will celebrate 18 years running a homeless shelter. They have 70 adult men staying at the shelter nightly where they are provided dinner, a shower, a warm meal, bed, and cereal in the morning. They partner with Frontier Behavioral Health, Chas Clinic, Snap, and city police and hospitals to help these men get the support they need. Truth Ministries has seen many get on their feet and have stayed in contact with most once they have moved on from the shelter. The homeless is family to them, and they believe that is why they have seen their success stories.
