Recently the Ashtabula Kiwanis group presented Beatitude House with a $1,800 check as part of the Make A House a Home Campaign. The Make a House of Home Campaign is a way for donors to help Beatitude House complete the renovation of the former St. Joseph Elementary School into 10 apartments for homeless families.
The Kiwanis have a special fund they use for charitable giving.
Teresa Boyce, Beatitude House Operations Manager accepts the donation from Kiwanis member John Shouvlin.
Beatitude House’s Permanent Supportive Housing progam will host an Open House on Thursday February 23, from 3:00 pm- 5:00 pm in their new offices at 201 Wick Avenue in Youngstown.
Come meet the staff, tour the new facility and enjoy some light refreshments!
What would Valentine’s Day be without a Heart shaped cookie made with love?
The children at A House of Blessing Youngstown had an opportunity to use their “sweet tooth” to ice and decorate large heart shaped sugar cookies. They tasted as good as they looked, too. Thank you to Jean Berger, a Beatitude House friend, who baked over 4 dozen cookies and sent the colored icings and sprinkles to complete the job.
Work continues on the former St. Joseph Elementary School in Ashtabula, where the building is being renovated to create homes for 10 homeless families.

A few schools have special assemblies and events where male students are asked to wear dress ties for the occasion. Since not too many moms know how to do, we asked one of our male volunteers to teach the skill to the boys. The boys at A House of Blessing in Youngstown learned how to tie ties for “dress up days”.
It will take a little more practice but they at least have the knotting technique down. Practice, practice, practice!!!
