We were so honored to welcome the First Presbyterian Church of Allentown, PA's knitting club today! 🧶

After donating proceeds from their recent blanket sales, they had the chance to see how their generosity is making an impact.

The visit was made even more special by Ms. Emma (front center), who was there in 1984 when the shelter established its first building, and returned today to see how that work continues. 💛

We’re getting excited to celebrate! 🎉

✨ What an amazing volunteer crew! ✨

A team from Liberty Mutual Insurance rolled up their sleeves and worked hard yesterday as part of their employee volunteer day. They cleaned apartments to prepare them for incoming families, sorted donations, organized closets, and even assembled new shelving.

We are so grateful for this incredible group. Volunteers mean so much to us at Sixth Street Shelter, and we truly appreciate everyone who gave their time to support our mission. Thank you! 💙
