Safe Harbor of Chester County


   
Providing shelter and encouragement for the homeless.

Our mission

Safe Harbor's goal goes beyond just feeding the homeless and providing shelter. We seek to understand each person's background, define short-term action plans designed to address their problems & needs, and monitor their progress. Our goal is to help rebuild lives and life skills, reestablish self-esteem, and help people overcome the issues that prevent them from leading independent, productive lives.

Donate
Your donation helps provide safe housing, nourishing food, and encouragement for the homeless. For those who have nowhere else to go, your gift can help rebuild lives.

We urgently need your support. Please help by donating what you can.

A note of thanks

We couldn't achieve our mission without generous contributions from all our sponsors and supporters.


Thank you to Best Buddies at Stetson
Holly Kelleghan (President) and Patti Smith (Advisor) from Best Buddies at Stetson Middle School dropped off a HEFTY check this morning for Safe Harbor. Not only did the students donate money... they also prepared bagged lunches and donated boxes and boxes of personal care and cleaning items for the shelter. Thank you everyone!
