Our model differs from traditional shelters. It’s a unique blend of congregational partners, hospitality. It’s a sustainable approach to providing shelter for families. Our congregations offer hospitality and hope by providing groceries for breakfast and lunch with volunteers delivering dinner.
This unique partnership with congregations preparing a room for each family ensures families stay together, never experiencing separation.
Other shelters may separate the father from the mother and children, teen sons from a single mother and their younger siblings or young adult children from the rest of the family.
Volunteers from all faiths help us transform lives.
