Current Opportunities

We’re ‘Keeping Our Neighbors Warm‘ again this year by collecting warm items! Please visit our Amazon Wishlist for easy shopping. Donated socks, long johns, sleeping bags and more can be dropped off in the bins in the Outreach Depot or the Outreach Alcove.

Ongoing Opportunities

Having a backpack provides significant benefits for those experiencing homelessness. In addition to keeping their belongings safe, it is a means of carrying a majority of what they own with them. Just Care Backpacks are filled with nonperishable food items, socks, a reusable water bottle, first aid kits, sunscreen, etc. Don’t forget to grab one the next time you are at St. Andrew and take it with you to give to someone in need in our community.

LEARN MORE

Each Sunday we partner with AfterHours Denver to provide sack lunches for those experiencing homelessness in our city. Lunches are made each Sunday morning at St. Andrew and then taken downtown and handed out near Civic Center Park.  Help is needed in making and distributing lunches. If you would like to be a part of this life giving ministry, come and see us near the Outreach Depot at St Andrew each Sunday morning or email for more details!

Joshua Station

St. Andrew assists Joshua Station with their Spruce A Room and Community Dinner programs. Spruce A Room involves transforming a room into a home for a family participating in the Joshua Station Transformational Housing Program. Turning an ordinary hotel room into a home for a family is so special; making it a cozy and peaceful space for them by thinking through who the family is. Community Dinner involves preparing, serving, and eating a meal with the families at Joshua Station.

 

Second Chance Center

Second Chance Center, Inc. assists individuals formally incarcerated, transition back into society successfully. Second Chance provides various essentials for community reintegration. These services include, but are not limited to, housing and transportation assistance, employment services, case management, and counseling.
