ENFIELD SAFE HARBOR RECEIVES GRANT

We recived a grant in the amount of $3,000 from the Archbishop’s Annual Appeal through its Vicariate Outreach Program.

This funding will help the Center expand its mission of providing a safe and warm place for our homeless residents in Enfield, Connecticut during the coldest times of the year.

Hot meals for our guests

Imagine going to sleep or trying to go asleep with an empty stomach.

Imagine your only meal for the day is at the local soup kitchen in the late afternoon.

Imagine being out in the cold all day and not eating at all.

Would you consider supporting our mission by providing a hot meal for our guests to not only  satisfy their hunger but to give them the peace of mind and ability to have a good night’s rest? We are reaching out to vendors such as yourself to help us by contributing to our commitment to help the homeless by providing this vital basic need.

For more information please contact Monica Wright at mwright.eshwc@gmail.com.

Thank you again for your donations.
