In a recent tweet, the Boise Rescue Mission Ministries expressed their gratitude to Bridgepoint Church for sharing 3 barrels of supplies for the homeless. In another tweet posted on October 5, the organization expressed an urgent need for socks and undergarments from donors and organizations.

While the charitable organization seeks help sustaining in their mission, ALPHV has gone ahead with a ransomware attack to extort money through it.
