Our coffee room is running low on supplies, and we could use your help to keep the caffeine flowing! 🫶

If you’re stopping by soon, we’d love donations of:

Coffee (ground)

Creamer (powder or shelf-stable)

Sugar, stir sticks, and cups

Every cup fuels the amazing work we do together — thank you for keeping our team energized and ready to serve! 💪

🔑✨ Key Friday ✨🔑

Today, we celebrate another powerful step forward.

Each set of keys represents more than a door—it’s stability, dignity, and a fresh start. Through a Housing First approach, we believe everyone deserves a place to call home, and today is a reminder of what’s possible when community and compassion come together.

Join us in celebrating this milestone and the journey ahead. 💙

A small donation can make a big difference. 💙

Our Day Shelter depends on everyday essentials to serve individuals experiencing homelessness with dignity and care. Items like socks, hygiene products, and towels may seem simple—but they meet immediate needs and bring comfort during difficult times.

Want to help? You can shop our wishlist and have supplies sent directly to us:

Thank you for showing up for our community in meaningful ways.

Legal Aid is a vital partner in helping our clients move toward stability and security. ⚖️

From applying for and appealing Social Security benefits to addressing housing challenges and other critical legal needs, their support makes a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.

Access to justice is access to opportunity—and we’re grateful to work alongside partners who help make both possible. 💙
