Dear Friends,

Good Shepherd will host our Annual Harvest Dinner on October 12, 2023. The Harvest Dinner Is Good Shepherd’s signature fundraising event which helps fund our innovative programs and services designed to break the cycle of poverty.  We need your help to raise much needed funds for our programs. Today, I am writing to ask for your support through a donation to our Silent Auction.

Good Shepherd is the largest provider of human and social services in the Greater Hamilton area. We are called to Never Stop Loving, which is guided by our faith in people. Its work is based on a commitment to restoring hope and dignity to the most vulnerable members of the community. Originally established in 1961 as a men’s shelter, Good Shepherd’s continuum of care has grown to include emergency food and clothing services; emergency shelter for men, youth, women and children, and families; mental health crisis support for both adults and at-risk youth; education; transitional and supportive housing programs; senior support; and hospice palliative care. Our values are based upon hospitality which is at the heart of Good Shepherd’s mission, the programs and services are provided free of charge, without judgment to anyone in need.

Your generous contribution will enable us to continue to serve the many in our community who depend on us for support. At Good Shepherd, we know we are not the only ones who have faith in people. Or who get great satisfaction from seeing people move beyond setbacks to explore their potential. Our services depend on the involvement of people like you!
