| | About Poverello Center: The Poverello Center is Western Montana\'s largest emergency homeless shelter and soup kitchen. The "Pov" sleeps up to seventy homeless residents a night and serves 100,000 hot meals, 365 days a year. Clients are homeless, working-poor, disabled, mentally ill, elderly, veterans, families and folks struggling with substance abuse recovery. The Poverello Center also operates transitional housing facilities, the Joseph Residence for homeless families and the Valor House for homeless veterans. Services at all sites include mental health facilities, medical facilities, a food pantry, a clothing room, hot showers, agency and job referrals, a laundry room, and many other services that enable our clients to move into safe, affordable housing and begin a life of integrity back in the work-force. The Pov receives significant support from the community at-large (to give you an idea, we filled 19,000 volunteer shifts at the Poverello Center in 2007!)
Sustainable Practices, Products, & Services: Recycle, full employee benefits. Important Dates & Facts: The "Pov" was founded in April 1974.
Awards & Achievements: Frequently voted in the Missoulian and Missoula Independent as Missoula's "Best Non Profit" and Ellie Hill, Executive Director, voted as "Best Activist". |
