Father Bradley Shelter

🩵👶 The stork is on his way to the Father Bradley Shelter!

One of our sweet mamas is expecting a baby boy in September, and we’d love to make sure she has everything she needs to welcome him into the world. 💙 We’re hoping our community can help us shower Mama & Baby with the basics—diapers, wipes, bottles, baby bath items, clothing, and all those newborn necessities.

Her biggest need is a breast pump, as unfortunately her insurance will not cover one.

If you’d like to help us welcome our newest little resident, we’d be so grateful! 🍼🩵

💙 Financial Stability Snapshot 💙

Right now, the Father Bradley Shelter is home to 15 women and 4 children. Of those 15 women, 11 are participating in our financial stability program funded by United Way of Henderson County. These residents are employed or receiving Social Security disability income. And these 11 women have saved a combined…

💰 $14,997.78!

That’s an average of $1,363.43 per woman saved toward their next chapter. This is what working toward permanent housing looks like: income, savings, stability, and a plan. We are SO proud of these women and the work they are putting in! 💙🏠

What a difference a year can make! 🧡

Receiving the POW! Grant last year was truly the jumping-off point for the Father Bradley Shelter’s facelift. What started with a much-needed kitchen renovation gave us the momentum to keep improving our space and creating a place that feels more like home for the women and children we serve.

We are so incredibly grateful for the women of POW! and their investment in our shelter and our mission. Their generosity made an impact that reached far beyond our kitchen, and we couldn’t be more thankful. 💙

We’re excited to share this article from The Hendersonian highlighting where it all began! 🏠✨

Baskett Community Fire Department, WARM Center and YMCA are up for this year’s $15,000 grant The Father Bradley Shelter for Women and Children was the $15,000 grant winner at last year’s Partnership of Women grant awards. With that funding—and money from other local grant awards—the shelter ...
