Looking for a way to support Ashland’s Pioneer Hall homeless shelter? The shelter will open in mid-November, and RVUUF’s Religious Explorations youth will assemble kits of useful items for the adults who will be sheltered there.

All RVUUFians are invited to help by donating:

• Socks (adult sizes only)
• Refillable water bottles
• Gloves (adult sizes only)
• Tooth brushes and tooth paste
• Nutritional food bars
• Candy bars (leftover wrapped Halloween candy bars welcome)

John Wieczoreck said that socks are the No. 1 need but all items on the list will be put to good use. Look for the collection bin under the balcony starting Oct. 18.
