HISTORY

From 1968, the Outreach Council had worked from donated space, which frequently changed.

In 1997, we acquired a run-down home, which was converted to a pleasant homeless shelter — (Bridgehaven, 109 W. 2nd St., Waverly, OH.)

In 2002, the two-story building next door (107 W. 2nd St.) became available. For the first time ever, we were able to dispense food and other services from a single location.

In March of 2004, the Bridgehaven mortgage was paid in full, a new back door was installed in the Emergency Services building, the parking lot had gravel applied, and electrical work was completed.
