Publisher Description:
Mailbox Muffins is the first book of its kind; a compilation of recipes put together by the homeless of the Oregon Place Apartments. Their compelling stories will make you realize how fortunate you are-and how close we all are to becoming homeless ourselves. Oregon Place offers apartments to people who might otherwise be sleeping in the woods. The apartment rent is income based. Tenants must earn less then 50% of the area median income. The nonprofit agencies work with tenants, helping them sign up for the support and training they need to regain financial independence and permanent homes.

Contributor Bio(s): Place Apartments, Homeless Of Oregon: - This book is written by the homeless that live at the Oregon Place Apartments in Biloxi. After Katrina hit they were mostly left on the streets to survive alone. They have all contributed their recipes to the book and all proceeds go to the Oregon Place Apartments.
