First quarter service report        

Welcome to Spring!

2022 got off to a frigid start in Oak Harbor, but SPiN was able to step up and offer round-the-clock shelter for two weeks courtesy of our hosts at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church. For more on that story, take a look here:

In the first four months of 2022, SPiN provided 2,442 lunches – at St. Stephen’s during the week and at Hal Ramaley Park on weekends – and served on all 120 days in those months, for an average a little over 20 meals a day.

In those same four months, the SPiN day shelter was open 88 days and welcomed 2,091 guests, averaging around 24 visits a day.

The first week of March saw SPiN restart the dinner program, with 667 dinners served on 27 days of service through the end of April. That’s an average of about 24 dinners each evening we served during the first two months of dinners.

None of this could happen without you, our supporters, continuing to help us. Thank you, and we hope we can count on you in the future.
