Carpenter's Shelter, Inc.

Imagine that you are homeless and have struggled for many years to find stability and a place that gives you some feeling of permanence. Carpenter's Shelter helps people in that situation by offering David's Place, a day shelter for homeless adults. 

David's Place allows its guests to take showers, do laundry, access the phone and internet, and have a mailing address. David's Place is the first point of outreach for the most vulnerable and hardest to reach population in our community. 

Last year, 174 adults accessed David's Place and received the support they needed. Of the 174 adults, 45 took the steps necessary to enter a residential shelter program, moving even closer to stability and finding a place to call home. 

Those that access David's Place need you. Please donate to Carpenter's Shelter and support the homeless men and women of Alexandria. Our goal of $40,000 will fund David's Place for the next year. You can provide refuge and support to the most vulnerable population in our community. Together, we can continue to be the change that Alexandria's homeless need most. 

Carpenter’s Shelter supports the homeless in achieving sustainable independence through shelter, guidance, education and advocacy. For more information about Carpenter's Shelter and our programs, please visit www.carpentersshelter.org.
