Safe Shelter Saves Lives

Every night, hundreds of unsheltered people are trying to survive on the streets of Central Iowa. They’re hurting and in crisis. When you join Team Hope, you’re offering safe refuge that gives our hurting neighbors the chance to rest and breathe a little easier as they take their next steps toward stability. Your monthly giving provides safe shelter and hope year-round!

Your Year-Round Impact

Hope Ministries is currently sheltering more people than ever before. Along with shelter, our neighbors in need receive free warm meals, daily care and compassionate support every step of the way. When you provide safe shelter as a monthly donor, you’re offering more than a roof over someone’s head. You’re also giving:

A Sense of Stability

No longer will they question where they’ll sleep tonight or when they’ll have their next meal.

Peace & Belonging

No one should feel alone or forgotten. We welcome our homeless guests with love and support.

Help & Hope for the Next Chapter

Through practical tools, caring guidance and long-term life recovery programs, we’ll help them take their next steps.
