Adopt a Resident
We believe in community and our residents need your support to help them get back on their feet. Our residents and patients enjoy knowing the people who support them.
If you are interested in adopting a resident and forming a relationship with them, they would be greatly appreciative. You will be able to visit the resident and maintain a pen pal or phone relationship with them (if you choose).
Sponsor a resident for one year
Cover a resident’s complete care
We ask that you cover their expenses for one year, which is $2,500 USD. This amount covers all housing, food, medical, and rehabilitative services. Donors who donate $2,500 USD receive a FREE weekend at Great Huts Eco-Resort which is located near the shelter. Any donation is greatly appreciated.
Support a Staff Member
Sponsors may also donate to a full time staff member who earns approximately $135 USD. Your donation to a staff member helps defray their other costs such as living expenses, taxi to and from the shelter, and meals. This donation often goes to support their family as well as they are often the only ones employed.

If you decide to sponsor a resident or staff member, please donate through our website and send us an email or call us and we will match you with a resident based on who you would like to sponsor (male, female, young, old, current needs, etc).
