Support Our Veterans!

For too many who served our nation, the battle does not end with their military service. Many veterans struggle with their transition to civilian life with non-transferable job skills, physical and mental health challenges, navigating a complex benefit system and loss of identity and purpose. A lack of affordable housing and limited support networks compound these challenges leaving many veterans vulnerable and on a path to hunger and homelessness. Your donation TODAY through the remainder of November will be matched to support our veterans in need! 

No Freeze

We can all feel the weather is becoming much colder... The Beth-El Center operates a warming center in our Community Kitchen for unsheltered individuals from November 24th through April 1st. This is crucial support and seen as a lifesaving program in the community. We not only offer a warm place to escape the cold, but we also offer food and hot beverages to our guests. This year, 45% more of our unhoused neighbors will need access to Warming Centers so they do not freeze overnight. Thank you for supporting this lifesaving program

Meet Richard

After serving 8 years honorably in the United States Army as a Weapons and Unit Supply Specialist, Richard was discharged in 1989. He relocated to Florida and quickly secured work in construction, but had a difficult time making ends meet due to low wages throughout the state. He ended up at Beth-El Center shortly after becoming homeless. Since working with our Housing First Case Managers, we are excited to share that Richard has been presented a housing voucher and is now looking for his new home! We'd love it if you'd take a moment to watch his video.
