2The Daily Tar HeelFriday, September 21, 1990 EEC shelter visitors Editors' note: This article concludes a four-part series on the InterFaith Council and the kitchenl shelter. By PETER F. WALLSTEN Staff Writer When the InterFaith Council shelter for the homeless opened in the Com munity Church in 1985, fewer than 10 people spent their nights there. But the new shelter in the municipal building at HOW. Rosemary St. sleeps around 70 people and almost reaches its capacity every night.

"They're liv ing marginal lives. The worsening of the economy and the problems will just push them on the edge." Chris Moran, IFC community ser vices manager, agreed with Pollitzer that the national and local economic situations are adding to the increasing numbers of people living on the streets. "As long as there is a shortage of affordable housing, and as long as wages don't go up, there are going to be more homeless," he said. "Just because we have 50 beds, and 50 people sleep here, doesn't mean that there aren't more homeless people out on the streets." The males used to outnumber the females staying in the shelter, but now that statistic is quickly changing, Pollitzer said. "This is a national trend," she said. "The increase is in women and children. We're seeing major increases in the numbers of women and children who are in need of shelter assistance." All of the women's beds were occu pied Thursday and the IFC expects the FRIDAY Noon: CGLA will hold a Lesbian Lunch in 218 Union.

The comfort and convenience of the new facilities have also added to the growth in the numbers of people stay ing at the shelter, Moran said. "We wanted to make it a nice facility and a comfortable place," he said. "Because it's a nice place to go, we're getting people here who didn't use our facilities before." The shelter's location is also drawing more people to use its services, Moran said. "We were concerned it would take a while for folks to find us," he said. "But the first day we opened ... we served 35 people for lunch. I think that says the location is good." In addition, a variety of new services are available at the shelter, which is now open 24 hours a day. "The daytime program has added a lot," Moran said. "That helps us to work .with (shelter inhabitants) in a better way. We can sit down with them and Ramshead parking lot to begin setting up for the Pep Rally. Be there!

The public library is helping the IFC "create an annex of books" for the read ing pleasure of the shelter's inhabitants, Moran said. The library will donate reading material about every six weeks. Daytime programming is becoming increasingly extensive and will even tually include job placement seminars and activities with a social worker, Moran said. "As we get settled, and as we get more volunteers, we'll be able to do more things," he said, adding that the Project Literacy group from the Cam pus Y will begin working with some of the shelter's clients soon. But the same factors contributing to the larger crowds in the shelter are putting strains on the kitchen. Volunteers are serving an average of more than 1 50 meals a day a 70 percent increase from last year, Moran said. During the busiest times, meals must be served in a white and dark shirt. 12:30 p.m.: Carolina Fever will have a brunch in the woods across from CarmichaelFetzer.

The loft company deserves most of the blame, Heckert said. The company has not reimbursed her yet for the loft, she added. "I guess I am more upset with the company," she said. "Saying it (the loft) is University approved before they were sure is asking for trouble." n Cheesedogs Uillshire Dogs Hamburgers Catfish Sandwiches Grilled Mari nated Chicken Sandwiches Nicolas Cage Laura Dern 1:304:15 7:009:45 IN UVj JLL.1N 1 lJ "BIG, ray) RICH, POWERFUL AND EXPLOSIVE.

"We're spending more money in food dollars," Moran said. "We need eggs, we need milk and other perishables. We're beginning to feel the pinch." The food shortages are forcing the IFC to look for more ways to stock the kitchen, Moran said. "We're going to have to approach the business community more and get per ishables that maybe they were going to throw away or that were old," he said. "We also need more volunteers who are willing to pick that up." Despite the large number of home less people taking advantage of the shelter and kitchen, the IPC is still only serving a fraction of the people who need help, Moran said.
