Let's Connect

We welcome volunteers in many capacities to support our mission! Opportunities include:

• Facility maintenance and improvement
• Administrative assistance
• Event planning and coordination

Please visit our Get Involved page to see current opportunities and complete our volunteer application. All volunteers must attend an orientation session and complete a background check for the safety of our residents.

We gratefully accept new and gently used items that help support our residents. Our current most needed items include:

Please see our In-Kind Donations section for a complete list and to schedule a drop-off.

Men come to us through various pathways:

• Referrals from social service agencies
• Hospital social workers
• Other homeless service providers
• Sometimes through word of mouth in the community

We conduct a compassionate intake assessment to ensure we can meet each person's needs and that our environment will be a good fit for their situation. Our priority is creating a safe, supportive space for men to rebuild their lives.

ELRO is not affiliated with any religious organization. We welcome men and children of all faiths or no faith. Our services are provided without religious requirements or expectations.

That said, we respect the spiritual needs of our residents and can help connect them with appropriate faith-based resources in the community if requested.

We value corporate and community partnerships! Here are ways your organization can get involved:
