First Stop was honored to speak with Ruth’s Circle at Asbury Church in Madison this past Veteran's Day. We shared our mission of supporting and empowering our unhoused neighbors on their journey to independent, stable housing. Ruth’s Circle showed incredible generosity, donating blankets, tents, tarps, and other essential items. These contributions help us continue our work, especially as we approach the holiday season. A heartfelt thank you to and Ruth’s Circle for being true friends and supporters of the unhoused community. Together, we’re making a difference! #FirstStop #CommunitySupport #VeteransDay #UnhousedSupport #MadisonAL

This Veterans Day, we honor the courage and sacrifice of those who have served. Sadly, about 33,000 veterans are homeless on any given night in the United States. At First Stop, we are committed to supporting our veterans, ensuring they receive the care and resources they deserve. Let’s work together to help those who’ve bravely served our country find stability and hope. ??
