Wilson Day 

Last week Wilson House held their annual fundraiser. We are pleased to say that we raised almost $900 for Young House in Albany. With this money Young House will look to provide temporary accommodation for those youth in Albany who are homeless, or at risk of homelessness. The donation will also allow them to mentor these young people, teaching them independent living skills, giving them connections to education and employment and moving them toward either returning home or independent living. 

We thank every person that purchased an ice cream, or two, and supported this great cause.
