Capacity Building and Shelter Expansion Project
Every day, we have to turn women and their children away because our beds are full. Help us “extend the branch” and double the number of families we serve by donating to our capacity building and shelter expansion project. The Extend the Branch campaign will fund a 3,500-square-foot addition as well as renovations to our current facility.

Project Timeline
“The best part of my day is meeting Jesus in these women and walking alongside them as they rebuild their lives. The hardest part is the five or six calls a day we get from women we have to turn away.”
