Columbia -- The Salvation Army is asking for the public’s help in supplying beverages, including sports drinks, to their Harbor House homeless shelter at 602 N. Ann.  Harbor House is a designated cooling center for people to use when the temperatures soar. 
 
“The Salvation Army is pleased to offer our Harbor House facility to accommodate people who are suffering from the heat.  We invite people who need to get away from the hot temperatures to stop in and cool down.  We have cool water to offer people and we hope supporters will donate some other beverages,” said Major Kendall Mathews, Columbia/Jefferson City Regional Coordinator. 

“Our donors are the best and always come through for us.  Drinks can be taken to Harbor House Monday through Sunday, 7 AM – 10 PM,” Mathews added.
