Homelessness Challenge raises $4,000 for men’s shelter in Elliot Lake

By Rosalind Russell – The Homelessness Challenge hosted by the Elliot Lake Women’s Group is once again being considered a success.
The group’s admin assistant Rebecca Kelterborn says it was the fourth year in a row they held their three night-four-day campaign in late October where supporters recreated a homeless scenario to raise funds.
She says the event successfully raised $4,000 to go to the ongoing costs of maintaining Larry’s Place.
The shelter now houses men on a temporary basis with overnight stays, so the support from the public is appreciated by the organization.
