Financially Support Fortitude
2020 Capital Campaign
$ 100 minimum
-
This shelter season we are adding the St. Paul's Lutheran Dearborn site to our rotation of shelter sites for 2 nights each week. While this old school building has the perfect foundation for our shelter needs, there are some renovations needed. These include: Creating a kitchenette, updating bathroom fixtures, reactivating shower plumbing, installing hook ups for washer/dryer, and updating electricity to accommodate our needs. In addition, we need tables, chairs, office furniture, and more for the site.
-
We estimate $15,000 is needed to prepare the space for sheltering. Donors toward this capital campaign will be honored with round wood plaques on our new Donor Wall. Our Donor Wall (above) will be permanently displayed in the entryway of the Dearborn site. The display will move to any other permanent site in the future, ensuring yourself a permanent place in the history of Fortitude!
