Jase: “Hello! How’s it going? So my name is Jase Roe, and I work at Homeward Bound. We are a Native American shelter in Minneapolis, Minnesota; we have 50 beds and we’re a low-barrier, harm reduction-based shelter, which means that we allow people into our shelter if they’ve been using or if they’ve been drinking, and we do not tell them that they need to leave. They cannot use onsite, however, but but they can come under the influence, and they have a safe, warm bed–especially here in Minnesota, it gets really cold, right?
Why I’m making this video (and I’ve made plenty in the past) is, I’m asking for donations for Homeward Bound–the shelter I work at–if you look in my bio, you will see a Amazon wish list. You can click on that wish list and just select items, and it’ll be sent right here to 2012 South Cedar Avenue, in Minneapolis, MN, area–ah zip code 55404. Our phone number here is 612-354-7352, my name is Jase Roe, I’m a case manager here. And What I’m asking for today is just donations. Donations of jeans, and sweatshirts, we need smaller sizes for men, but also larger sizes, XXL, XL–these are sweatshirts that I have–I also have some personal supply items here for our residents, and these are hats and gloves. I’m gonna show you what we also have–
We also have all these items here, so these are plenty of boots and shoes. We will need some snow shoes; these are jackets that we have right now, along with some snow pants, and then also what we have here–[referring to a photo] there I am–we also have some more women’s items. So we need some women’s thermals, and we need some more women’s, kinda, warmer tops. So what I’m asking is basically, so, for people to please go and clean out your, like, closets. If you have gently used items, and you’re in Minneapolis or St Paul, we would love to have you stop by here, Monday through Friday, any time during the day up until 4 o’ clock. On the weekends, feel free to stop here during the day too. You can always give me a call too, 612-479-8744, that’s my personal cell, so don’t blow it up! But you can call and ask me questions about the shelter or anything, our needs, and I am here–if I don’t get back to you I will call you back or send you a text. So yeah, Homeward Bound! We need donations, please! We would really love them. And we appreciate all the love and support that we’ve gotten so far–the handmade hats, the gloves, man we’ve had notebooks and a lot of things sent to us. So–but we are a shelter and we always will have a need. So thank you so much! We love you guys, and I love you guys. Aho.”
