A volunteer group has helped raise funding needed to remove asbestos from UCAN City Mission‘s future women and children’s homeless shelter.
The volunteers, through the Ascension Leadership Academy, raised $31,000 through a virtual auction and an entertainment event.
The new shelter will be located in the former Field & Wright Building on North Main and First Street in downtown Jamestown.
UCAN Executive Director Jeff Rotunda said the facility will have 85 beds in addition to a laundry area, learning center, and a thrift store.
