At Sisters in Shelter, we take pride in keeping our home clean and comfortable for the women who live here. Our residents even take part in the upkeep themselves as it's a small but meaningful part of building routine as they heal. The items on our list are simple, everyday things, but they make a real difference in how our shelter feels day to day.

If you ever find yourself with a little extra to give, we'd be grateful for anything off our cleaning supply list, no amount is too small: https://a.co/0ao2KuCK

No pressure at all, just wanted to share in case it's something you'd enjoy helping with.

TU Job Fair: Federal Work Study Intro

We're headed to the Tiffin University Job Fair on Friday, August 28th, and we're recruiting for Federal Work Study positions! 🎓

Not sure what Federal Work Study (FWS) even is? Here's the quick version:

Federal Work Study is a need-based federal financial aid program that lets eligible students work part-time with approved community organizations (like Sisters in Shelter) to help pay for college expenses. It's earned through a job, not a loan, so there's nothing to pay back.

How do you know if you're eligible?
✅ You'll need to have completed the FAFSA
✅ Check your financial aid award letter or student portal to see if Federal Work Study was included in your aid package
✅ Still not sure? Stop by your school's Financial Aid Office and they can tell you in minutes

If you're FWS-eligible, come talk to us at the job fair (or reach out directly) about working with Sisters in Shelter, a job where your hours don't just pay for school, they help change lives.

📍 University Job Fair — Friday, August 28th @ 10AM-1PM
