My name is Tammy markley and I was involved in a kidnapping by several people I had met at the downtown shelter.Wintertime came and I found myself on the street and was told about JOPPA.I connected with a gentleman who was head of the warehouse on EUCLID.I explained my situation to him during the interview and he furnished me with my own tent,heater, propane tank with replacements weekly,hot meals,and
Medical services that would come by weekly to check on me.In December it was 35 below zero and Joppa placed me in a motel for 2 weeks and then I was approved for my apartment.
Review from Guidestar
I have volunteered with Joppa for the past 4 years through both my work volunteer chapter and most recently through my church. I am on the core team for my church supporting various ministries with Joppa. The partnership has been exceptional. The love, care and passion they have for the mission of ending homelessness and making their homeless clients feel valued is amazing to be associated with. The employees work tirelessly and the volunteers make all the difference. Thank you Joppa! Keep up the great work.
