Why Donate?
Sojourner Truth House is dedicated to providing help and hope to women and children experiencing homelessness and hunger throughout Gary and the surrounding communities in Lake County Indiana.
By donating, you can help women and children move from a homeless shelter into safe and affordable housing. You give a child access to a positive, nurturing environment close to Mom as she participates in restorative classes, activities, and entrepreneurial opportunities. You ensure that a family has a meal and basic essentials for their household.
When you make this gift to Sojourner Truth House, you let your neighbors in need know that you care. Your compassion and generosity help our clients take steps toward renewal and self-sustainability. You give them a sense of hope. Thank you.
