Help for Today. Hope for Tomorrow.
Many of our city’s most vulnerable people are struggling with their mental health.
At The Kettle we care for people by offering practical help, outreach services and a place to belong. You can provide meals, showers and more with your gift this winter.
Your donation will be MATCHED today, up to $35,000!
Looking back, Ed remembers one night of homelessness in his mid-twenties.
“It was scary and so cold”, he remembers. “I didn’t know what to do.”
Today, Ed is thriving, safely housed and grateful for all the help he has received.
