For over 36+ years, Arlington Life Shelter has been a refuge, hope, and healing for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. It's hard to believe it has been five years since we opened our newly renovated facility, fueled by our unwavering commitment to providing safety, dignity, and a fresh start to families and individuals experiencing homelessness.

For the past 5 years, we have provided unwavering wrap-around case management to all our clients, three meals a day, laundry, employment services, and a safe and clean environment for them to call home. Our now 24/7/365 program shelter has been home to over 400 families, over 700 children, and over 3,000 individual men, women, and children since our expansion. In our new family dorms, we have kept families together. In our new dining room, with the community's help, we have provided three meals a day all year long.

As we celebrate our 5th year of expansion, we’re also looking ahead. We need your help. Let's celebrate and help us raise funds to continue our mission! 

Will you join us with a recurring gift today of $5, $15, $50, $500, or more to help us continue our mission? You are truly helping our neighbors regain self-sufficiency and build a stronger future!
