Bed Sponsorship

You're invited to partner in this mission to help the shelter provide for the particular needs of each resident for an entire year. As a bed sponsor, you would be providing food staples, personal grooming products, bed linens and medicine. Your donation also assists with any other needs of the resident occupying that bed. The cost to you is less than $1.37 a day.
