Naples United Church of Christ supports The Shelter
Thank you to the Board of Mission & Outreach at Naples United Church of Christ for their grant award of $3,000 to benefit The Shelter’s emergency shelter. The grant will be utilized to purchase one filtered bottle filling stating for the emergency shelter and one ice machine bin that will be utilized by shelter residents, participants utilizing our onsite services and staff.
