How To Get Involved
Getting involved at a The Davies Shelter is a powerful way to make a real difference in your community. It offers the chance to share compassion, provide practical support, and be part of someone’s journey toward stability and hope. It’s more than service—it’s a step toward building a more caring and connected world.
Volunteering
We’re always looking for compassionate volunteers to join us in a variety of projects—and there’s no better way to learn about our mission than by working alongside us.

Thank you for helping us create a safe and welcoming environment for all.
Share A Meal
One of the most meaningful and practical ways to support our guests on their restorative journeys is by signing up to provide a meal at one of our shelters. It’s a simple act that offers nourishment, comfort, and a reminder that our guests are cared for.
We serve breakfast and lunch to our guests every day—but we couldn’t do it without the generous support of our community. Here’s how you can help:
-
Sign up on MealTrain to provide dinner for either the Men’s House or the Women & Children’s House.
-
Prepare, purchase, or gather a meal for the number of guests listed on the MealTrain (e.g., 12 women and 8 children, or 16 men).
-
Drop off your meal at the house you signed up for (address provided on MealTrain) between 5:00 and 5:30 p.m. on your scheduled day.
Your support helps us nourish both body and spirit. Thank you for making a difference!
