FREDERICTON The city of Fredericton is spending $20,000 to help the homeless in their city. The Phoenix Learning Centre is where many who are homeless in Fredericton spend their days. At night, they head to the Out of the Cold Shelter for a place to sleep. However, there is a gap between Phoenix closing and the night shelter opening. The $20,000 is going to allow an extension of the hours so I can put a staff member in place, said Scott Earle of the Phoenix Learning Centre. We re going to be able to maintain now until 8:30 in the evening where the shelters open at 9 so we re reducing that gap.

Belongings of a homeless man who sleeps in a doorway on Queen Street. (Joe McDonald) comments Luke Randall, who owns Endeavours Art on Queen Street, said he has witnessed five people sleeping on the same block of the street in the past two weeks. I had such a hard time even coming to work yesterday, he said. So once I got here… I was like, I ve got to do something more.
Randall posted on Facebook some of the needs of one man who sleeps near his store. Among them: blankets, clothes, soup and mint tea.
