OATH seeks help with meals for the homeless Okefenokee Alliance for The Homeless (OATH) is seeking help with their Meal Train!
OATH has seen an increase in the homeless they serve daily from 10-15 to 35-45 at the office. OATH assists truly, on-the-street homeless individuals that can receive one meal a day from OATH and its partners.
Please, if you, your church or youth group, your business or organization, your civic club, etc. could help provide a meal that would be incredible! And yes, they serve the homeless from Pierce County when they can.
