Oliver Maner Recognizes National Homeless Awareness Month with November Donation Drive

SAVANNAH, Ga. - Oct. 26, 2022 - PRLog -- In recognition of National Homeless Awareness month in November, Oliver Maner, one of Savannah's most prestigious law firms, will once again partner with other local law firms to raise funds and collect supplies for Parker's House at Union Mission. This new program is Savannah and Coastal Georgia's only facility solely dedicated to providing emergency housing and comprehensive supportive services for unaccompanied women experiencing homelessness.

"Last year, the program was a success and helped to stock Parker's House in time for their opening," said Oliver Maner partner Bill Hunter, who also serves on the Executive Committee for the Board of Directors at Union Mission. "Now that the new Emergency Housing Program is in operation, we are enthusiastic about continuing to help them and making a safe and comfortable place for women who find themselves homeless."

Donations of goods can be dropped off at the Oliver Maner office, 218 W. State St., during business hours. The firm will accept donations through Wednesday, Nov. 30.

Oliver Maner also set up an Amazon registry (https://smile.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/OK1EZDP7HMBK/ref=...) to make it easier to donate.

• Personal care items (toothpaste, shampoo, soap, deodorant)
• Bedding (pillows, sheets)
• Paper products (toilet paper, paper towels)
• Cleaning supplies (Swiffer products, Lysol cleaners, disinfectant wipes)
• Undergarments (socks, undershirts)
