Friends Of Massie History, Architecture & Issues Lectures:

“Home for the Holidays? Let’s Think about the Homeless, Too”

The Friends of Massie in partnership with the Downtown Neighborhood Association, sponsor quarterly discussions about history, architecture, and issues of public concern. They open this humanitarian and environmental discussion to the public on Wednesday, November 20th at 6:30 PM at Massie Heritage Center, 207 East Gordon Street. Doors open at 6:00 PM.

Most Savannahians spend their lives with the homeless being out of focus. However, it still costs each of us to support them without arriving at a solution. How has that happened? What can we do about it?

Friends of Massie and the Downtown Neighborhood Association have invited Cindy Murphy Kelley, Executive Director of Chatham Savannah Homeless Authority, to update us on the issues. Ms. Kelly’s non-profit organization plays a vital role in our community by connecting displaced families, homeless individuals and those at risk with resources to reconnect with society.

One of her more innovative projects is the Tiny House Project on The Cove on Dundee, off Wheaton Street, where the first 24 residents were to be in place by last year’s end. Bring your questions and concerns to open this necessary and vigorous open conversation about our hidden population and their issues.
