Did you know that the daily cost of running the emergency shelter is approximately $5,000 and only about half of this is covered by public funds. The balance, about $2,500/day (or about $1MM/yr.), comes from private donors who want to ensure clients have a safe place to go and nutritious meals to eat.

With tough economic times, we applaud and thank our donors who have helped support the shelter with their dollars, time and dedication.

Your gift can make a difference with the Adopt-a-Day program. 

Community groups, religious organizations (churches, synagogues, etc.), individuals, families, schools, etc. can adopt a date(s) for $2,500/day. 

Pick the date(s) of your choice – perhaps to honor a person’s birthday or special event, etc. – and make your donation at any point during the year.  

Adopt-a-Day today, and know that on the date of your choice, Pacific House will operate thanks to your generosity.
