Family Promise is the leading national nonprofit addressing family homelessness, providing homelessness prevention, emergency shelter, workforce development, education, financial capability, health and wellness, and so much more.
Covenant’s Participation:
Covenant members facilitate the Family Promise shelter for four weeks a year. During those weeks, Covenant volunteers cook meals, spend the night, and stay during the late afternoon and evening hours with the guests. Covenant has four teams of Covenant coordinators and roughly 30-40 volunteers from the church. The church and individual members also support various Family Promise projects and events.
