Help Us Give the Most Important Gifts
Winter’s chill lays bare the vulnerability of the women we serve
with a cold that can sink into one’s body, mind and spirit.
Frigid temperatures make the streets all the more perilous for homeless women. And the high costs of staying housed and warm jeopardize the fragile stability of women living in poverty. Many will have to choose between paying rent or eating dinner. Keeping the lights on or buying a holiday gift.
More women are counting on us for their most basic and critical needs.
Can we count on you?
Your generosity will help us provide the most important gifts:
support and comfort, hope and love.
It could be a warm coat, hat and gloves given to a guest in our Day Shelter. A hearty meal served to a mother and her children in our Dining Room. New pajamas and a safe, cozy bed made up in our Overnight Shelter for a woman who spent the night before in the bus station. And by providing rental and utility assistance for hundreds of women this winter, we will help them stay housed and healthy, knowing the security and comfort of their own home. Thanks to friends like you, Rosie’s Place gives support and comfort.
Every day, we meet women in crisis, in despair. Struggling to maintain their sobriety, job, housing or their hard-won footing in a new country. With the expert and unwavering support of our Legal, Behavioral Health, Employment and Housing Specialists, we help our guests attain stability and seek opportunity. Rosie’s Place gives hope.
Over this holiday season, poor and homeless women may feel alone, even invisible. But at Rosie’s Place, they will feel the warm embrace of community and a sense of belonging. From celebrations in our Dining Room to holiday gifts and groceries distributed through our Food Pantry, to the comfort of a listening ear and encouraging words, our guests will know they are cared for. Today and tomorrow, Rosie’s Place will give the women who turn to us, all our love.
Thank you for believing in the importance of our mission and the power of compassion.
Heartfelt best wishes for the holiday season,
