A mom who stayed at our shelter welcomed a baby. During her stay, she built a trusting relationship with Bryn (pictured), a peer support staffer who was the only person present at the birth. Mom and baby are housed and well!

Your donations make this care possible. #bethaniesroom

We usually welcome 2-3 cats and 2-4 dogs per night at our women’s shelter. Bethanie’s Room, is one of only a few places that allow pets to sleep with their human. It’s definitely extra work to keep supplies and litter available.

Levi handmade 42 leather belts for people experiencing homelessness. These incredibly useful gifts will be given out to Blanchet House guests. Levi thoughtfully made them in varying sizes. This began as an Eagle Scout project and he’s continued. Good luck at OSU!

This week, the city updated us on plans to close a 200-bed shelter down the street from Bethanie’s Room. Our shelter is at capacity most nights, with limited options for guests to move into housing. As more shelter beds disappear, we’re left asking where will people go?

“Know what it means to LIVE... Not just be ALIVE...” is a painting by our meal guest Cheryl. Eliza bought the original, which is featured in our On the Ledge Art Show.

Unfortunately, a second window in our cafe was smashed this week. We have it boarded up now but the cost of repair takes away from helping people with food and shelter. You can help, by donating $10 at https://t.co/4jlRbUOHG0. Thank you for your support.

Imagine it’s your first time in America and Blanchet House is the first place you visit and dine? That’s exactly what this group from Japan did. As a collective of volunteers with the Japan Humanitarian Support Center they came to learn how to run a human aid organization.

Every day, people line up at @blanchethouse for a hot meal. Some are experiencing homelessness. Some are working but can't make ends meet. Some are seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, or neighbors facing a temp crisis.

We believe everyone deserves to eat. No question.
