🔑 It’s Key Friday! 🔑

This set of keys represents safety, dignity, and a fresh start. Because of our community’s support, another person has moved from homelessness into permanent housing.

Thank you for believing—like we do—that housing changes everything. 💙

Make a Gift. Your Employer Might Match It. 💼❤️

When you support St. John Center, you help provide real pathways to housing and stability. And if your employer offers a match, your contribution can stretch even further—fueling our mission in incredible ways.

Take one minute today to ask:
“Does my company match charitable donations?”

Your kindness could ripple twice as far.

💙 A Meaningful Time of Remembrance 💙

We are grateful to everyone who joined us for our memorial service. It was a beautiful and meaningful time to pause, reflect, and honor the lives of those we have lost.

Coming together in community—to remember, to share stories, and to hold space for one another—reminds us why this work matters and how deeply connected we are to one another.

Thank you to all who helped make the service so thoughtful and to everyone who showed up with care, presence, and compassion.
