Letter from the Director - Paul Garner

Dear Friends and Supporters of Safe Harbor of Erin,

This quarter has been a remarkable one for all of us at Safe Harbor of Erin, and we are thrilled to share the exciting progress we've made, thanks to the incredible support from our local community.

A New Chapter Begins

We are beyond grateful to announce that our new addition is officially complete! With the help of so many generous hands and hearts, we have successfully finished our new industrial kitchen, dining area/chapel, and additional office space. These upgrades will greatly enhance the daily operations of Safe Harbor and provide a welcoming environment for all who walk through our doors.

Our new industrial kitchen allows us to serve more nutritious meals, while the spacious dining area/chapel provides a serene space for reflection and fellowship. The added office space ensures our team can continue to serve the community effectively and with the utmost care.

A New Space for Fun and Connection

We're also excited to announce the opening of our new game room, which has been a huge hit with our clients. With the addition of two pool tables, a ping pong table, and a dart area, this new space has quickly become a place where our clients can unwind, connect, and have fun. The positive impact on morale has been undeniable, and it's heartwarming to see so many smiles as they enjoy their time together.

As we continue to grow and thrive, we remain deeply appreciative of the support we've received from you, our amazing community. It is because of you that we can create an environment where healing and hope are possible.

Thank You

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your ongoing support. We are excited to see what the next quarter brings and are eager to share more updates with you soon.

With gratitude,

Paul Garner
