Colder temperatures bring added stress to all of us. Will our pipes freeze? Will the car start? Can I get to the grocery store?
Personal well-being due to extreme temperatures is generally not a concern for us, but for our city's homeless, weather-related issues such as frostbite and hypothermia are very real concerns.
Light in my City is thankful to have been able to provide tents, tarps, sleeping bags, blankets, hand-warmers, gloves, winter socks, and of course LuminAID lanterns and FosPower emergency radios this weekend to help keep our homeless Pittsburgh neighbors as safe and warm as possible.
