Apple Fest is just one part of The Salvation Army’s Homelessness Bites campaign to end homelessness for families who spend their nights on Indy’s streets.  For these folks, homelessness bites.  You can bite back by joining us (and making your friends, family, co-workers, and more come, too) at Apple Fest.

What can you do ’til then?

Fill those Bite Back boxes and bring them to Apple Fest for a FREE apple cobbler – who knew giving would have such a sweet reward? Don’t have a box? Give Mel a call at 224-1019 and she will get one (or enough for you and your whole office, family, circle of friends, group) to you to start your collection.

Also, check-in on Foursquare at the event for $1 off your dessert!

Go through the closets and find gently used coats to donate to our Coats for Kids collection drive. Thanks to our neighbors, we were able to provide Indy’s kids with over 5,000 winter coats in time for the cold weather last year. Our friends from WTHR-13, Tuchman Cleaners and Two Men and a Truck will be there to take your coat donations and we’ll give you a FREE apple cobbler as a thank you!
