A Safe Haven—a low-barrier shelter serving folks who have been living on the streets—is opening on Washington St in the Financial District! Lower Manhattan Open Hearts is putting together “welcome kits” with basic needs items, homemade cards, and neighborhood resources to help our new neighbors settle in—and we need your help to make it happen!

Join us to make cards and assemble the donated items into welcome kits at a neighbor’s apartment in the Financial District on Tuesday, August 6, from 6pm-7:30pm. Folks of all ages are welcome.

RSVP is required, and exact location will be shared upon RSVP. RSVP by emailing Will at will@openheartsinitiative.org, or by clicking the button below.

Looking to donate to the welcome kits instead (or in addition)? Check out our donation page here.
