Mission
Provide food and shelter to 16 homeless men at no cost to them while they transition onto independent living. Provide free soup kitchen to all who choose to come to our door.
Program accomplishments
- We are a charitable homeless shelter providing 16 beds nightly, 365 days a year, on a first come, first served basis. We provide 3 meals daily to our guests including bag lunches. There is zero tolerance for drugs or alcohol use. All guests must attend at least 1 Alcoholics Anonymous meeting a week. We hold 2 AA meetings on premises open to the community. One paid staff member is on duty at the house at all times. Staff serve as mentors to guests as well. Weekly interviews are conducted by staff to monitor job status and goals of guests. It is expected that within 14 days a man will have a job & open a bank account. Pay stubs and bank statements are required as proof. Many men will go out every day very early to day labor. It is required that all show up at the evening meal where sharing information and words of encouragement are exchanged. In 2025, we had 126 intakes with 50 men staying 3 days or less. 27men stayed for the normal stay of between 60 to 90 days and went on to independent living with a job. In 2024, we had 157 intakes with 67 men staying 3 days or less. 35 men stayed for the normal stay of between 60 to 90 days and went on to independent living with a job. This is the measure of success for our mission.Expenses $299,650
