Poverello
House. Poverello House is a private, nonprofit,
nondenominational organization that  serves the hungry, the
homeless, and the destitute of Fresno, California. Poverello House began
officially in 1973, but its history goes back much further. In
the turbulent 1960's, a young man named Mike McGarvin was on the fast
track to becoming one of the many casualties of the decade. Drugs,
alcohol, violence and hopelessness were his daily companions, until he
found a place in San Francisco called Poverello House. The priest who
ran the coffee house asked Mike to volunteer, and the experience changed
his life. The San Francisco Poverello served people who were
characterized by poverty and despair. It was a place where they could
come to find acceptance, a smile, and unconditional love. There, Mike
found the answer to his problems: service to others. More here. |
