Call for submissions: How are you helping the homeless?

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS. (614) wants to know how Central Ohioans are helping out the homeless in a cashless society.

The pandemic has shown us many possible future realities, and one of those has been what a cashless society looks like. Even in Columbus, we’ve seen the situation evolving rapidly, with the constant removal of old parking meters that utilized cash payments. 

So what does this mean for the homeless, who rely on cash for food and a place to sleep at the YMCA?

There are people who hand out supply bags, those who will provide gift cards to local restaurants, and even those who will bring them a local meal.

What other ways have you found to help the homeless when you find yourself without change in your pocket? Please send your submissions to editor@614now.com with the subject line: HELPING THE HOMELESS, no later than July 24.
