Scientology Volunteer Ministers Assist In Combating Veterans Homelessness
In honor of Veteran's Day, The Scientology Volunteer Ministers took part in "Operation: Reveille 2015", an event hosted by the Tampa Hillsborough Homeless Initiative. Fifty-eight veterans attended the event at the Port of Tampa Bay and received food, clothing and stable residences to live.
- (1888PressRelease) November 18, 2015 - Tampa, Fla. - The Volunteer Ministers distributed 130 items of gently used clothing and shoes to the veterans and their families from a booth manned by the Volunteer Ministers throughout the day.
The Volunteer Ministers also responded to inquiries for more information on their free life-skills courses on topics ranging from marital strife to stress at the workplace and drug addiction. These courses are based on the works of L. Ron Hubbard.
Volunteer Minister Brian Ward, who organized the clothes donations stated, "These soldiers were very respectful and really appreciated the clothing and sundries they were provided. We were very happy to help serve the men and women who serve our country."
Volunteers from all participating organizations served food and beverages, helped veterans connect up with housing representatives, and provided other services needed by the veterans to become self sufficient.
