The Journal | Wednesday, March 5, 2025
Local organizations in the Eastern Panhandle, including Warming Hands and Hearts, the Faith Community Coalition for the Homeless, and Jefferson County Community Ministries, are stepping up to provide shelter and heating assistance to those in need this winter. As highlighted in The Journal, these nonprofits rely on fundraising efforts like the Unity Campaign to address increasing demands for housing and support services due to rising living costs. The challenges faced by families are exacerbated by economic factors, such as job loss and inflated rental prices, making these essential services vital for residents in Ranson and surrounding areas.
