The IW Men’s Center is open, and shelter guests need our community’s support.

Every day, the 60 men staying at the IW Men’s Center need access to nutritious food. We are seeking $5,000 a month to keep essential food supplies on hand when a prepared volunteer meal is not available. Your support helps provide pantry items like cereal, milk, peanut butter, jelly, rice, beans, fruit, snacks, and other food supplies.

Volunteer Meals Are Still Essential!

The Shelter Meal Fund does not replace volunteer-prepared meals. We need both.

Volunteer groups, faith communities, families, and individuals who prepare meals provide more than food—they provide care and connection to the men staying at the IW Men’s Center. But when a volunteer meal isn't available, we need to know there is enough food on hand to fill the gap.

Your support gives us that security.

Your Gift Makes A Difference:

$150 — One day of meals
$750 — Five days of meals
$1,050 — One week of meals
$2,250 — Half a month of meals
$5,000 — One month of meals
