The

Pressing Need

Demand for healthy, safe, and sober housing for those facing diffcult challenges, addiction and homelessness is greatly increasing in the Chippewa Valley. As a result, the current short stay living space is unable to accommodate the growing number of men seeking help. The current space does not allow for social distancing, lacks privacy, and is furnished with traditional-style bunk beds with ladders, making it a challenge for adult men to access the top bunk.

The

Solution

Construct a physical expansion to double the short stay section of the current Hope Renewal Center for Men.

Hope Gospel Mission has a bed sponsorship opportunity for those who may desire to honor or remember a loved one who has struggled with addiction. This opportunity will provide safe, warm beds to help countless individuals struggling with addiction, now and in the future.



A bed sponsorship of $2,000 includes the cost of one bed, mattress, and bedding. A total of 24 beds are available for sponsorship. Sponsors and/or the person being honored or remembered will receive name recognition on a donor plaque that will be displayed on a wall in the newly expanded sleeping area.

What is the

Short Stay Program?
