Oceanside, CA - Oceanside Homeless Resource invites the public to the Homeless Resource Breakfast and Fair this Saturday, February 8th from 9am-12pm at the Oceanside Sanctuary located at 204 S. Freeman.

The Homeless Resource Fair is a monthly event presented by the Oceanside Homeless Resource, a local community group started by Oceanside resident, Vanessa Graziano. "It truly is a blessing because it brings hope to the individual and they start talking with you and you could see that light in their eyes. We also are so blessed to be partnering up with the Oceanside Sanctuary and bringing these resource breakfast and fairs every second Saturday of the month. I’m so looking forward to seeing our community out there helping those that are on the streets in their cars and bringing hope and connection."

According to Vanessa about 70 homeless individuals are expected to come through and receive services and much needed resources like food, clothes and hygiene packs. Among the offerings being provided are:
