November 24 - Grace Centers of Hope

People need help right now... Grace Centers of Hope is an awesome organization doing great work in my home state of Michigan.  As everyone knows, Michigan is struggling with one of the worst economies in the nation... but there are some here who making a HUGE difference! 




Grace Centers of Hope is Oakland County’s oldest and largest homeless shelter providing hope and help since 1942. Today, Grace Centers of Hope is considered one of the leading faith-based organizations in Southeastern Michigan daily confronting issues of homelessness, addiction, poverty and spiritual emptiness. On any given night, Grace Centers of Hope will accommodate between 150-200 men, women and children. Each year we serve over 127,000 meals and provide over 55,000 nights of stay.   Our budget is supported exclusively through private support; we receive no government dollars.


GCH provides the basic necessities of life: food, shelter, and clothing. Most importantly, we sustain HOPE. All programs and services provided by Grace Centers of Hope are designed to contribute significantly to the reduction of homelessness, provide clients with opportunities for life-changing recovery, and to help break the intergenerational cycle of poverty and abuse.


Grace Centers of Hope’s vital programs include the Emergency Shelter, One Year Life Skills Program for Men and Women, Children’s Programs, and the After-Care Program. All guests in our programs benefit from food and shelter services, counseling, life skills courses, vocational education, a drug-free work environment, and our state-of-the-art learning center. The results of our efforts have helped many to obtain a GED, become homeowners, regain their children, and, most importantly, develop the courage to change their lives.
