This month, a community effort on Tucson's Southside will provide much-needed support for the homeless population at Santa Rita Park. The 'Community Potluck 4 The Homeless' is an initiative that goes beyond just serving meals; it's about creating a sense of belonging.“It started with just a simple idea of bringing people together,” said event organizer Adreanna Ramirez.
Local businesses are also stepping in to help. Ty Young, founder of Brew Bites USA, will provide food for the pets of the unhoused. “As a community, we have to work together,” Young said. “Dogs and cats that come with the families are hungry. It’s hot out here, and they need water and food just like their humans.”Local nonprofits will also be participating with businesses. Operation Heartbeat will be donating meals as well as providing 100 units of Narcan, an opioid emergency medication.
