Help us with our evening meals! Is your business looking to make a positive difference in the community this winter? Safe Harbor is seeking partners to provide evening meals at the shelter. As a meal partner, your business or organization will: • Receive training on using the shelter kitchen (we’ll connect you with an experienced group to learn the ropes before handling a meal on your own). • Plan and shop for food that will feed about 85 people, including volunteers and staff. • Experience the joy of giving back to the community — and create a space for your own organization's team-building in the process! Interested? We are eager to fill available meal-serving slots — we have openings the week of Christmas and New Year's Day as well as the first week of January. In addition, there are a few openings in mid-February and toward the end of March. Please contact Brad Gerlach at the shelter, 231-944-0283, to learn more. Thank you for considering partnering with us!
About Safe Harbor
Food, Shelter, Hope
Safe Harbor supports the physical and spiritual welfare of people experiencing homelessness by providing emergency shelter, food, and hope.
We operate a non-profit, volunteer-run Seasonal Emergency Shelter and a year-round Housing & Human Services Resource Center. As part of the Continuum of Care, we also focus on community partnerships in order to better collaborate on long-term solutions to ending homelessness in our region.
Why Volunteer
Since 2004, thousands of volunteers have given their time and love to help others in their community through Safe Harbor. We operate from mid-October through April to keep those experiencing homelessness safe from the winter elements. The more you learn about our people, our guests and our mission, the more you’ll want to join us.
