GOOD VIBES.
Every dollar we raise goes to work immediately to help our most vulnerable neighbors move out of homelessness and into permanent housing. And we don’t stop there. We like to say our special sauce is in our services – our whatever it takes spirit – to help our clients thrive. The support we offer looks different for each person, and is based on their unique set of circumstances and abilities. From providing up-front costs like security deposits and rental assistance, to helping navigate complex relationships with landlords, and connecting clients with mental and physical health care services, these supportive services are essential to the wellbeing of each person we work with.
GOOD FRIENDS.
Three years ago we established a special leadership giving club called the DOMOS Community. DOMOS is Latin for “homes” and members of the DOMOS Community join Friendship Shelter in its quest to create a safe home for each person experiencing homelessness. DOMOS Community members create financial stability and agility for Friendship Shelter, making it possible to seize opportunities to grow and enhance its housing efforts. DOMOS SUSTAINERS choose to support Friendship Shelter with a commitment of $5,000+ each year for three years and are critical to the success of Friendship Shelter as they provide dependable income over a multi-year period, strengthening our organization, and allowing us the flexibility to meet the changing needs of our community.

GOOD work.
Founded in 1988 by community activists, Friendship Shelter provides a continuum of programs designed to meet the dynamic needs of our clients. Last year alone, we served more than 700 individuals and helped 96 people move out of homelessness and into permanent housing. Over the past 35 years Friendship Shelter has focused on studying, understanding, and transforming its approach to ending homelessness, and the results speak for themselves. 97% of housing clients retain their housing year after year. Our full spectrum of services includes outreach, shelter, housing navigation, financial assistance, and permanent housing with supportive services.
