As part of our Dallas-based media team’s bi-annual community outreach event, 45 Morochians volunteered at Dallas Life, one of the largest homeless shelters in North Texas. Over the course of three days, the team had an eye-opening and joy-filled experience serving lunch to Dallas Life residents.
Giving hope to those in need since 1954, Dallas Life offers shelter, food and water for up to 500 residents at a time. No matter the reason as to why an individual is homeless, Dallas Life has a renowned rehabilitation program that provides residents an opportunity to gain needed skills to turn their situations around. Lasting anywhere from six months to a year, programs focus on an array of topics such as addiction recovery, job readiness, men’s and women’s issues, budgeting, and more. Upon graduating from Dallas Life, the hope is that residents will be better equipped for a new, independent lifestyle.
While Dallas Life runs on very low overhead costs, through community partnerships they are able to give hope to those weathering the storm. The Moroch team was honored to help out and see first-hand that doing something as simple as serving a meal can make a difference in the lives of others. We look forward to continuing our media outreach program and finding new ways to give back to the communities we live in!
