SCMC Sheltering Families Fund
As Sisters of Charity of Our Lady, Mother of the Church we provide stable living conditions for those who have been dealt a difficult hand in life at our Holy Family Home and Shelter (HFHS Community).
We are the only shelter in our area that will house families. That is what makes us unique and sets us apart. Keeping families intact while they are facing a difficult time is important to our organization.
Since 1989, 36 rooms have been used to provide shelter for more than 1600 people. Though some of these rooms are still being used, many are in great need of renovation before they can be used again.
We are working to address the needs of our community’s most vulnerable members in keeping families together. Will you help us?
With Grateful Prayer,
Your Sisters of Charity
