Family Shelter Renovation

SAEHC’s Family Shelter has been serving homeless families with children for over 38 years. We are in the process of updating and expanding this vital facility. The agency plans to completely rebuild the shelter in four phases. Each phase is designed so that no families will be displaced during the process. The completed shelter would serve 19 families at a time, almost a 50% increase!

We use this truck to pick up large donations, to get furniture for families leaving the shelter, and to get our groceries every week.  If you have a used truck that still has a few good years left on it, please consider making a donation to our agency.  Call (916) 454-2120 x 302 or email donations@saehc.org for more information.
