About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to provide a safe, welcoming and comfortable space for people to gather in downtown Brunswick, offering our guests respect, encouragement, companionship and hope.
About
Each year our goal is to establish a caring community for greater Brunswick by collaborating with our guests, volunteers, staff and neighboring organizations; provide the most vulnerable among us with daytime shelter, sustenance, access to resources and opportunities to improve their lives. During 2018, we continued to receive the pledges from the building campaign that began in 2015. The facility was open for the full year and met all safety guidelines, function and acessibility for our visitors. Ongoing planning and ways to enhance the efficiency of the building and allow continued access for the foreseeable future continue to be the key focus of the board.
