关于我们
The Presbyterian Night Shelter is a place of trust, respect and caring for the homeless, helping them regain their quality of life. We serve the needs of the homeless while respecting their dignity. The Shelter is the only free area emergency shelter without length-of-stay restrictions. More than 4,300 individuals call the streets of Tarrant County home. Of these homeless, over 95% receive services from the Presbyterian Night Shelter sometime during the year. We served 4,439 homeless people in 2013. The Shelter is the largest provider of services for the area homeless population, supplying meals, beds and basic human care, case management and employment services to an average of 650 homeless clients each night of the week, every week of the year. Since it was founded 30 years ago by local Presbyterian ministers, it has provided more than 3 million nights of stay and served more than 5 million meals. The Shelter offers resources enabling clients to reenter mainstream society, and employs at least 30 homeless clients who handle day-to-day operations. Our mission is to lead the journey from homeless to home. Located east of downtown Fort Worth and one block south of East Lancaster on Cypress Street, the Presbyterian Night Shelter is a 5-acre campus of four facilities.

Employment is a key in helping to break the cycle of homelessness! When you support Presbyterian Night Shelter on North Texas Giving Day, you're supporting programs like UpSpire, our employment-based social enterprise that lowers the barriers to employment.

Volunteers are a vital resource for nonprofits across the country, and the volunteers at Presbyterian Night Shelter are among the best! A desire to help, a belief in the mission, and an open heart are all qualities our volunteers possess. There are as many reasons to volunteer are there are people who step up to share their time and talent. In this month's video, In Love and Service, learn what motivates some of our volunteers to do what they do - and how they are personally rewarded by sharing their gifts . https://lnkd.in/gyHFzksW

UpSpire is expanding! Not only does the new Warehouse service line allow UpSpire to grow our business, it allows us to employe a whole other group of people needing work. “There was a sector of our population that, unfortunately, we were missing,” states Daryl R Davis II , Vice President of Workforce and Career Development, “and so [adding] the warehouse gave us the opportunity to employ individuals who are facing challenges with many of our labor-intensive opportunities that they aren’t able to do.” #employment #warehouse #upliftingpeopleinspiredworkforce #parttimework https://bit.ly/46osVo4
