Spring Spruce Up at The Travelers Hotel
with Goldman, Sachs & Co.
On Friday, May 11th, volunteers -- including Young Professionals Board Co-President Keith Berger and Board of
Directors member Adam Heft -- from Goldman, Sachs Community TeamWorks (CTW) volunteer program, participated in a
substantial beautification effort at The Travelers Hotel.
The team painted 11 bedrooms and several hallways, as well as repaired broken tiles and refreshed old plaster.
Some of the volunteers even chose to work through their allotted lunch hour.
At The Travelers Hotel, Urban Pathways staff works to help residents prepare for permanent housing by offering a full
range of services including: case management, mental health counseling, psychiatric services, pre-vocational
training, money management, medication management and housing placement counseling. Improving the building's
environment furthers Urban Pathway's goal to provide its clients - homeless men and women, the majority with mental
illness - with hope and dignity, empowering them to better the circumstances of their lives.
For more information about The Travelers Hotel or Urban Pathways' housing programs, please contact
Karen Trella at 212-736-7385, ext. 215 or
ktrella@urbanpathways.org.

| Organize an In-Kind Drive |

One of Urban Pathways' main strategies to fulfill its mission is the development of ground-breaking program models
designed to, on one hand move clients rapidly and directly into permanent housing from our street outreach and
drop-in center programs yet still include supportive services to address each client's most basic needs,
including freshly prepared, nutritious meals, showers and medical attention. Each year, Urban Pathways
spends over $100,000 on products related to meeting these needs. Freeing up even a portion of this expense
in our tight operating budget will allow program directors to increase critical services such as medical attention and
housing placement and expedite our clients' move down the road to permanent housing.
