News & Events

 

Skip has been a nighttime shelter support volunteer since TAC’s 2021-2022 sheltering season, and has since become a very familiar face around the shelter! Being one of our most regular nighttime volunteers this season, he has gotten to know many of our guests well and has become a trusted source of comfort for many. Skip lends a helping hand, a non-judgmental ear, and a kind word wherever he can, and for that he is truly appreciated!

Skip grew up in Chicagoland, but has called Paonia home for the past two decades. There, he shares a home with his wife Patty, two beagles and one cat! Skip identifies himself as a “professional volunteer”, which we absolutely love! He is a former music director at KDNK radio in Carbondale, and if you tune into KVNF, you might catch him DJing a show.

Thank you Skip for your ability to make the shelter feel like home! 

 

On the 4th Saturday of each month, we invite you to help sort donations, tidy up the shelter and learn about other volunteer opportunities we offer. Our volunteer coordinator will be on site and ready to answer any questions you may have about the Abraham Connection.
This is a great opportunity for families, clubs, church or youth groups who would like to volunteer. Contact our volunteer coordinator at (970)433-6266 or ltaylortheabrahamconnection@gmail.com for more info or to RSVP.

 

Thank you Spectrum for your generous donation of $3000! Your gift will help the Abraham Connection continue to offer emergency food and shelter to Delta County’s homeless and hungry.
Thank you for speading some holiday cheer at the shelter!
