I Realize the Shelter Offers a Program, and you have to Follow the Process. But Should a "Program" override the Safety and Well being of Woman and Children? Satan is Aware of My Triggers, but because I've been injured by the same weapon the same way. I pray Jehovah's Will Saturate Within my Chromosones and DNA. So that a Calm and Peace Settles in me. If I as Flesh is livid about the Careless, then how much more so Jesus, Jehovah, and Gods Good Angels? Because Jehovah Excercises a Patience Unthinkable to man his Wrath is Controlled like a Bridle on a Horse. In Submission to my Fathers Will, and the True Salvation of Christ. I Will Excercise Peace and Allow Jehovahs Holy Spirit to Operate. The Definition to Salvation is: preservation or deliverance from harm, ruin, or loss. A person without Money Can not Buy because the Money Excercises Power over the product. A non-profit organization can not provide Deliverance due to "Program" Stipulations Excercising Control / Power over their Resource (Shelter.) In the Same Way Jehovah Witnesses Will not help unless baptism. Is the same way the shelter is. Humans. Create Stipulations. While Jesus did not. Jesus did not say Peter lets eat just Us 12. Jesus saw a Human Need which is to eat. And im sure Criminals, People of Different Ethnicities and Religions Were in his Crowd. Jesus Saw there Was not enough food so he Made Enough Food for all to Eat. And Plenty of Left Overs. If I had a daughter and I passed away. For a Shelter that is Suppose to Provide "Salvation" to deny a Young Black Woman a Safe Place. Until the next day for the entire Process to be completed, Is Selfish, Careless, and Not Humane. Operating on Donated Funds You Did not even Work for. I Pray Jehovah judges all matters in his time, wisdom, and desire. And that another young blk woman can see another day. Amen.

Cedez Humphrey | Sep 17, 2019

If you can stick it out please do! This place is not a good living condition for kids. They’ll put you on the 3rd floor and it’s smells like mold! A baby died last year from it and they still haven’t done anything about it! You’re a money sign to them they could care less if you come and stay for months! Women have been here for years. No need to ask for help with housing the same way you go out and apply it’s the same here they don’t just give it to you.

william abbott | Sep 17, 2019
Dorothy Brown | Sep 17, 2019

What type of donation, money or food? Is it a big food donation? We do allow people to come and donate to woman in the parking lot but we don't allow cooked food to come in the building unless it's organized through the volunteer coordinator. If it's a monetary donation to a person you can give it to whomever you would like but if it's donated to the shelter you can speak to the front desk.
