Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Lutheran Social Service of MN

Life Haven provides short term transitional housing to teen moms (ages 16-17) who are experiencing homelessness and their children. The program provides a friendly, safe, and supportive place where young moms can move out of survival mode and begin to work on a plan that will lead them toward stability for themselves and their children.

URGENT NEEDS:

  • Lyft and Uber gift cards for transportation to and from medical appointments and other necessities (increments of $20-$50)
  • Baby Wipes
  • Shaving Cream/Razors
  • Soft Bristle Brushes
  • Wide Tooth Combs + Rat Tail Combs
  • Shampoo & Conditioners (preferably Shea Moisture Brand)

Meals are needed that are completely prepared when dropped off with only heating necessary.

Thank you for your interest in helping provide nutritious food for teen moms and their children.

In response to the COVID-19 public health crisis, we have established "no contact" drop off procedures.

Please contact MetroHomelessYouth@lssmn.org for more information or be placed on our meal donation schedule. Thank you for your generosity during these challenging times.
