Our Goals for 2018!

Shelter From The Storm

Currently this is a not an overnight facility, but we are praying that with the help of community members and businesses we can change that in 2018.

There is no overnight facility in Henderson County for the homeless during  times of inclement weather, and yet the need is great. It has been estimated that there are about 50 to 100 homeless individuals, including women and children, in Athens alone.  If you would like to help us reach our goal in building an overnight facility, please click on the give button found on the top of each page. Your help is greatly appreciated.

This year on January 15, 2018, we had snow, sleet, and freezing rain with temperatures dipping into the teens and single digits for several days.  While our facility is not equipped for overnight stays, we felt the overwhelming need to provide a warm place to stay to the less fortunate in our area. So, we decided to clear our reception area and asked for donations of blankets, sleeping bags, pillows and air mattresses. Our community came together to provide enough supplies for our guests.  Our first sleep over  went well and there was "Room at the Inn" for all.
