Your Donation's Impact

Your selfless act in sponsoring the warming shelter provides aid in the form of operational support which supplies the essential tools in helping run the Warming Shelter day in and day out and the financial support for the daily staff and security.

What We Do

What makes the Warming Shelter different from other organizations that support the homeless is we welcome any and all who are in need of shelter. Once an individual steps into the Warming Shelter, we want to ensure we can provide the necessary support to get their lives on track. We do this by providing shelter, food, and hope. By offering stability and a warm place to rest, we give these individuals an opportunity to reintegrate into the community and become a contributor to the region. We provide compassion, help and direction to those who need it most.
