Mission in Action

As part of our neighborhood outreach, SFPC will prepare dinner for the residents of the Franklin County Women's Shelter (303 East Third Street) at 5:30 on the third Monday of each month. We need your help.

There are two ways you can help: make a dish that can be taken to the shelter or give of your time to serve the meal to the women and children. There are usually 15-20 women and children residents that we will serve. If you are able to help this month or in the future, please email us at sfpcwebteam@gmail.com 

The shelter provides a living quarters and services to homeless women and children in Franklin County and surrounding communities. They operate a transitional living center that houses seven women at a time, each of whom can stay up to one year.
