Hundreds of our neighbors braved the cold this week, hitting the streets across Buffalo and Western New York to count and connect with people experiencing homelessness. This isn’t just a headcount—it’s a lifeline. The data collected in one night helps decide how much federal funding our region gets to support shelters, housing, and essential services. Without this, thousands could be left out in the cold. Volunteers handed out hand warmers, food, and info on emergency shelters, making a real difference. How do you think our community can do more to help those without stable housing? #Safety #Buffalo #Homelessness
