The Davies Shelters’ Builder Society is a giving community of donors committed to building the future of The Davies Shelters. Builder Society members have made a commitment to give $1,000, $5,000, or $10,000 per year for the next 5 years.
Walmart/Grocery Gift Cards
Because each guest has different needs and we get new guests constantly, a great way to give to The Davies Shelters is to buy walmart or grocery store gift cards so we can get immediate needs of items and food.
Other Ways to Give
Bicycles & Helmets
Transportation is an important part of finding stability. Guests need to be able to get to work and appointments but public transit doesn’t currently reach every corner of the area. Bicycles are a great way to give the gift of access to people who need it.
Davies Wishlists
The Davies Shelters has Walmart and Amazon wishlists for regular needs for the shelter. If you have a few moments to spare, we always need the items that are listed on that page.
