Greenville Community Shelter Welcome to Greenville Community Shelter, providing shelter and supportive services for the homeless in Pitt County, NC since January 1988 and 8 p.m. nightly.

At CCC our Mission is to “serve the poor and homeless in a continuum of care from basic shelter to prevention that empowers clients to achieve and maintain lives of self-sufficiency”. Starting as a shelter for men only, CCC has evolved into an emergency shelter for men, women, and children; a permanent supportive housing program for those who are disabled; and an emergency assistance program that aims to aims to divert people from homelessnss and/or to re-house homeless people as quickly as possible. CCC helps people turn their lives around by giving them hope and desire for a better quality of life…365 days per year. Located at 207 Manhattan Avenue in Greenville, North Carolina, we accept homeless individuals into our Emergency Shelter, as space permits, between 6 p.m. Other housing programs referenced above are available through an application and screening process. As you tour our website you will find the application and referral process for each housing program. Who finds themselves at our doors? Elderly individuals whose families can no longer provide care…veterans who have protected our freedom…children whose families are without work due to layoffs or closures…the disabled with no relatives or support network –each needing a safe, secure place to stay. Please consider how you can help us help our community continue making these services available to those in need. Operating as a 501©3 charitable non-profit organization, your gifts to CCC are tax deductible to the extent allowable by the Internal Revenue Service. Thank you for your interest and support!

Finding stable housing can involve applications, employment, health care, benefits, transportation, and several other moving parts. Having someone help organize those next steps can make the process feel more manageable.

Through case management, residents can identify short-term goals and connect with resources suited to their circumstances.

Fourteen thousand bed nights each year.

That number represents thousands of evenings when a neighbor had a safer place to rest. It represents families, individuals, warm meals, quiet nights, and the opportunity to begin again the next morning.

Many thanks to Dan, Jessica, and their daughter, Sophia, for being the first volunteers to spend time with the children in the Child Enrichment Program at Greenville Community Shelter!

During their visit, the children colored, drew pictures, played Go Fish, and read books together. The smiles, laughter, and excitement said it all—they loved every minute.

We're especially grateful that this wonderful family has committed to returning on the third Saturday of every month to work and play with the children. Their kindness and dedication are helping create a fun, nurturing environment where our youngest residents can learn, grow, and simply enjoy being kids.

The Child Enrichment Program is off to a wonderful start, and we can't wait to see it continue to grow. Thank you, Dan, Jessica, and Sophia, for making such a meaningful difference! đź’™
