Christian Care Receives RI Gaming Funds

By Pam Hauman

Rock Island, IL – $2.000 was awarded to Christian Care from the City of Rock Island’s Gaming Funds. The funding will support a partnership between the Rock Island County Council on Addictions and Christian Care for the provision of on-site substance abuse counseling services. Christian Care provides safe shelter, food, clothing and other supportive services to homeless men in our community and is the only homeless men’s shelter in the Illinois Quad Cities. The mission of Christian Care is to empower the homeless to make positive changes in every aspect of their lives. For over 100 years, Christian Care has been transforming the lives of the least, the last and the lost.
