Our Impact

You are making incredible things happen!

Each day - by the way you pray, give and engage with our mission – individuals and families who were once homeless are experiencing a new beginning wrapped with hope and anticipation of a brighter future.

Significant Highlights include:

·   33 Veterans, 100 adults, and 95 children were safely sheltered and cared for by The Refuge and Liberty House.
