Dear Editor:
Re: A columnist from The Waterloo Record states we give the homeless toques, mitts and meals but where is the shelter – or the real warmth?
I want to say, part of the warmth – the thoughts, the toques and something to warm their bellies – is there.
But, something is seriously wrong when we close our minds and think it is correct to not provide proper resources.
Repurpose the old buildings and areas and stop getting rid of their belongings because the homeless are trying to create some warmth and shelter.
We need to turn empty cold nights into warm beds.
Lucy Dyment,
