Real Change
We would like to take a moment to bring attention to an initiative that the City of Spokane has taken called “Give Real Change”. Throughout downtown Spokane you will find a few oddly placed parking meters that have been painted bright orange. They are hard to miss. These meters offer an opportunity for passers-by to stop and donate any spare change, cash, or use their debit and credit cards to donate to local charities that are working to end homelessness.
While this is not a fix for homelessness, it will help to facilitate donations for organizations like the House of Charity. We commend the City for stepping up to help make it easier for people to donate to these organizations. If you are interested in making even more of a difference, you can call 3-1-1 for more ways to give. You may also check out our resources page for a list of local and national charities and organizations that are striving to make a difference in the lives of those who are in need.
We encourage you to stop by these orange meters downtown, at Riverpark Square, in the STA bus plaza and at the Spokane International Airport and make a donation to help end homelessness in Spokane! Be blessed!
