Warms Beds Beat Snowstorm

On Friday, March 12, House of Light was able to beat the storm to give away 11 beds to six families and 27 people, including 21 kids.

“We weren’t sure if the weather forecasters were accurate,” says Brandy Pfalmer, President of House of Light (HOL). “The only thing we knew for sure was we needed to get those six families warm beds despite what the weather looked like.”

According to the “The State of Homelessness 2020” report, at least 31,207 people in the metro area (including Denver, Adams, Arapahoe, Douglas, Boulder, Broomfield and Jefferson counties) accessed services or housing supports related to homelessness between July 1, 2019, and June 30, 2020.

“The people we serve at HOL are the same people in those statistics,” Pfalmer says. “I think each one of us at HOL sees faces, names and stories when we hear these numbers. If I asked anyone of our volunteers, they each would have a story about how someone’s generosity made a difference.”
