Shelter, Food, & Support Systems are things we often take for granted. Harbor House & St Anthony Shelter provide that for those in crisis.
Harbor House Domestic Violence Shelter and the St. Anthony Family Shelter provide housing, food, and educational assistance to Wichitans in extreme crisis. I'm honored to champion for these initiatives through the Queen Bee campaign. I recently toured both shelters which are at capacity and have 10+ daily calls that they are not able to fulfill. One-hundred percent of contributions to this campaign provide educational support, shelter, and food to those in need.

The average length of shelter is 34 days for St. Anthony Family Shelter and 65 days for Harbor House. Last year both shelters provided a safe place and warm meals for 244 adults and 392 children.
