Hope • Warmth • Stability... Because of Community

Dear Friends,
​

As we welcome 2026, we pause with deep gratitude for the compassion, partnership, and generosity you shared with Benjamin’s House throughout 2025. Because of you, our shelter remained a place of warmth, safety, and new beginnings for individuals and families facing homelessness during one of the most challenging years we’ve seen.

We are especially thankful to share encouraging news as we enter the new year. Benjamin’s House was recently awarded a WHEDA grant, providing a portion of the funding needed to update our heating and hot water systems. This critical support helps ensure we do not have to take rooms out of commission during the winter months and allows us to maintain stability for our guests.

While this grant brings us closer, we are still working toward the $120,000 total needed to complete the project.
