Become a SHARE Partner

Help feed our mission with our newest program: Supporting Homelessness Awareness through Restaurant Engagement. SHARE is a collaborative effort between you, a tasty local restaurant, and the Center for the Homeless to help break the cycle of homelessness.

As a SHARE partner we ask that you commit one day, or several, out of the year to donate your proceeds to the Center for the Homeless. Participating in this program is a way for you to share your commitment to this community by becoming a part of the Center’s family. In turn, we will market your place of business as a SHARE partner through a variety of media outlets.

Our hope is that every day of the year an area restaurant will open its doors and share with the Center for the Homeless. Since opening the doors 22 years ago, the Center has served more than 45,000 individuals, including, on any given night at least 50 children.

We work tirelessly to ensure our guests have every opportunity to change their lives and get on a path toward self sufficiency. If you are interested in becoming a SHARE partner please contact Taya Groover (tgroover@cfh.net or 574-282-8700 ext 81331).
