Ten students from The Columbus Academy joined the staff at HFF to organize boxes, clean vehicles, spiff up the gym at the Dowd Center, unload donations from a truck and put other items back on the truck to be distributed.  Adrienne Corbett, Executive Director, first gave the juniors a crash course in why families are homeless. The students wanted to know who supports the work of HFF, is the Dowd Center ‘just for children who live in shelter' and what do the older children do?  The answers appear elsewhere on this web site.
