The Social Justice Team at Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation in McHenry recently donated $781 to Pioneer Center for McHenry County PADS.

The check represents contributions from members and visitors from the September Second Sunday collection during services.

The congregation will also donate a portion of the profits from the annual live and silent auction and raffle on Saturday, Nov. 10.

McHenry County PADS offers emergency and transitional housing coupled with support services in order to help individuals experiencing homelessness work toward becoming self-sufficient. These support services enable individuals to receive case management, access to vocational programs and life skills training, as well as day-to-day services including access to showers, laundry facilities, transportation, computers and an address at which to receive mail.
