FROM THE DIRECTOR
Haven House renovations
are complete, beautiful!
H
aven House has finally finished
all of the renovations! It was
a long road from fundraising,
to living through moving furniture
from one room then to the next, and
the dust covering everything. But it
is finished, and it is beautiful. The
renovations have given us exactly
what we needed. Our residents now
have privacy and confidentiality
when meeting with caseworkers; all resident bathrooms were redone
to offer a more cleanly and usable space; we replaced the roof, soffit
and fascia; our front door is now handicapped accessible; our food
pantry is larger and is handicapped accessible; and our kitchen was
completely redone with stainless steel, movable tables. Staff has settled
into their spaces, and we are finally done moving things around!!
We hosted our Open House on June 15, 2009 to show off the
renovations and to thank our supporters. Representative Mark
Meadows and East Lansing Mayor Vic Loomis began the event with
a few words. We had a ribbon-cutting ceremony, followed by a few
short words from our funders, the Lansing and East Lansing Rotary
Foundations, Ronald McDonald House Charities and Michigan State
Housing Development Authority. We served light refreshments and
gave tours of the facility for all in attendance. If you missed the event,
please stop by any time and ask for a tour—we would love to show
you.
We are now getting ready for the summer and looking for ways
to keep the children busy. We have weekly trips to the Parkwood
YMCA so the kids can blow off some steam, and we have several
groups scheduled to come to Haven House to provide a day of special
activities for them. If you are involved in a group and would like
to come out and provide a few hours of fun for our kids, please call
Tiffany Chenault.
—Angie Mayeaux, Executive Director
Thank you for Having a Heart for the Homeless
T
he Have-A-Heart campaign has been an annual event of Haven House for many years. It
serves two very important roles. It is an important source of operating funds for Haven
House, and it is an opportunity to increase awareness in the community of the problems
faced by homeless families in the Greater Lansing Area and the role that we play in attempting
to ameliorate them. We are supported by Coach Suzi Merchant of the MSU Women’s Basketball
team, our Honorary Chairperson, and many merchants, professional offices, and other groups
who sell hearts for us. We would like to thank the following merchants for participating and
helping to inform the community of the important role they can play in helping the homeless:
AP Capital
Benson’s Vinaigrettes
Corey’s
Flap Jack - Waverly
Flap Jack - Frandor
Great Lakes Capital Funds
Maurer’s Sanitary Cleaners
St. Martha’s School
Woody’s Oasis - Trowbridge
Woody’s Oasis - Grand River

*Harold’s Personal Design Group
Douglas J
*Woven Art
*Mindful Movements
*Kidz Korner

*ThreadBear Fiber Arts Studio
*Flats Grill
*Indicates the businesses that participated for the first time this year.
If you purchased a heart from a merchant who participated in our campaign, we thank you
for supporting homeless families.
We anticipate other businesses and organizations will be added to the list each year. If you
are interested in joining our fundraising campaign, please contact Angie at (517) 337-2731.

Record-setting community
donations help area hungry
F
ood donations help the Haven House Food Pantry provide nutritious food for current residents and local households struggling to make ends meet. This May’s donations,
valued at $3,160, were a record high for the past decade!
Thanks go to the many individuals who donated food or
participated in one of several local food drives. Food drives
were sponsored by East Lansing Post Office Letter Carriers,
East Lansing High School, City of East Lansing Public Works
and All Saints Episcopal Church.
Haven House Food Pantry is part of the Greater Lansing
Food Bank system. Last year, we served 1,194 food bank
recipients and 367 residents of Haven House. For more
information about hunger in our community and how you
can help, go to www.lansingfoodbank.org.

Haslett High School supports Haven House
T
he Vision, Haslett High School’s
award-winning television and film
program, hosted their 5th telethon,
T5. The Vision has been creating films and
helping our community for over twelve
years. This year, it raised over $14,000 and
presented a $7,500 check to Haven House.
The Telethon broadcasted live on
Channel 22 in Meridian Township from
5:00 p.m., Friday, March 20, 2009, to
5:00 p.m., Saturday, March 21, 2009, and
streamed live throughout the world at
visiontelethon.com. There were great live
performances and web auctions the whole
24 hours, with hundreds of great items you
could bid on. This was a student-produced
program, and they were amazing!!

Food pantry receives

President
C
lients receiving food assistance through the food pantries are
at a high risk for inadequate intake of fruits and vegetables,
as emergency food assistance often does not include a
supply of fresh produce. Fortunately, The Garden Project of the
Greater Lansing Food Bank provided Haven House with 475
lbs. of fresh produce in 2008 to be distributed to its recipients.
The estimated cash value for this donation of produce totaled
$514. Haven House is thankful to have the support of other local
organizations to help provide assistance to needy families in the
Lansing area.
