It’s dangerously hot out there, and our unhoused neighbors urgently need our help to stay hydrated.

We are running low on bottled water and would be so grateful for any cases you can spare!

Cases of water can be dropped off any time at the Gladys Ray Shelter (1519 1st Ave South, Fargo) and the Resource and Recovery Center (2001 1st Ave North, Fargo) Monday through Friday, 8AM to 5PM.

Not in the area but still want to help? The Gladys Ray Shelter's amazon wish list a great way to give back!

Personal hygiene products (deodorant, wet wipes, toothbrushes)
Hats & sunglasses
Bath or beach towel

Non-perishable snacks

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for the ribbon cutting celebration at the new Resource and Recovery Center. We are thrilled to be bringing the vital services and meaningful connections from the Downtown Engagement Center into a new space, one designed to help our community engage with service providers and our team work at its best.

Our mission remains at the heart of everything we do: empowering individuals to take control of their futures through accessible, low-barrier services that prioritize public health, dignity, autonomy, and respect.

The Gladys Ray Shelter will not be relocating from our location on 1st Avenue South.

Thank you for making this our best Giving Hearts Day yet and for helping make dreams come true!
