North Side Housing and Supportive Services

03/18/2026

Wow! Huge thanks to The PR Method Fitness and their incredible community 💪

They hosted a one-day fundraiser for North Side Housing and Supportive Services and raised nearly $1,000—now that’s a “strong” showing (see what we did there? 😉).

We’re so grateful for businesses that go the extra mile 🏃 to support neighbors in need. This kind of community impact makes a real difference.

Please join us in giving them a big round of applause 👏

Interested in hosting something similar at your workplace or in your community? We’d love to help—reach out and we can provide materials and support to get you started.

This weekend, our Board President Peter Marchese had the pleasure of visiting Christ Church Winnetka during Sunday worship.

Following the service, members of the church community prepared a heartfelt feast of baked mostaccioli, fresh salad, and bread for 70 shelter residents. 💙

We are grateful for the warm welcome and inspired by the spirit of service and generosity shown today.

Turn your ACTION into IMPACT! We’re looking for compassionate volunteers to help cook, serve meals, and share meaningful time with our residents at our Rogers Park Shelter. ❤️
Food brings people together — and a warm meal shared around a table can brighten someone’s entire day. We’re seeking individuals or small groups who would be willing to:
🍽️ Prepare and cook a meal
🥗 Serve residents during mealtime
💬 Sit, eat, and enjoy conversation together
No professional cooking experience is required — just a caring heart and a willingness to connect.
This is more than serving food. It’s about building community, reducing loneliness, and creating moments of joy and belonging.
➡️ If you’re interested in volunteering or would like more information, please sign up at the link below.
We’d love to have you join us in making a difference, one meal at a time. 💛

We were so pleased to host Congressman Mike Quigley for a visit at our new 70-bed shelter recently. Our new facility saves lives all year long, but never more than when it’s bitter cold and dangerous for the homeless people living in tents. We’re grateful to Mike Quigley for his support of our programs

One year. One building transformed. Countless lives changed. ✨🏠

🎻✨ TBT to one of our favorite moments of the year!

This fall, a wonderful group of young musicians came together to perform Young Musicians for New Beginnings — using their talent to uplift our community and support neighbors experiencing homelessness.

As we look back on 2025, moments like this remind us of the power of compassion, creativity, and people coming together for something bigger than themselves. We are so grateful for everyone who has supported our mission this year. Your generosity makes this work possible, every single day.

💙 Thank you for helping us bring hope, dignity, and new beginnings to the men and women we serve.

🎶 And thank you to these incredible young artists for sharing their gifts to make an impact.
