PHFS to open new shelter in Lents
PHFS staff and board celebrating in front of the new shelter property on May 24th.
We did it!
Our entire village came together and generated $3.3million in just five months to purchase this campus that will shelter 26 families at a time in private rooms, expand our homeless prevention and life skills programs, and has room to develop affordable housing units in the future.
We are so grateful for the hundreds of people, foundations, and businesses who stepped up and said, "Enough is enough - we will not accept family homelessness as normal!" Your contributions and support will end homelessness for thousands of kids and their parents.
Over the summer, we will host many volunteer opportunities to help us set up the space and get it ready for families. We will also host tours and an open house so everyone can see our new space. The goal is to welcome families in this fall, hopefully as early as September. We can't wait to share our new home with you!
