Winter Overnight Shelter for Homeless Men

New River Valley





This past winter, from January through April 2011, To Our House (TOH), an inter-faith and community services volunteer organization, began serving the homeless population of single men in the New River Valley of southwest Virginia.

In the inaugural season, 28 different men who sought shelter from the winter weather were served by 29 host and support congregations or community organizations, staffed by 290 volunteers.

During this time, 403 shelter nights were provided, along with 1,209 meals. New River Community Action is the fiscal and insuring agent for To Our House.
