Several churches in town support the work of UMOM – United Methodist Outreach ministries in Phoenix. It is the largest Homeless provider in AZ.
About 25 people from The Fountains visited and learned about the new Halle Women’s Center, which is housed in a remodeled hotel very near the UMOM campus. This allows the women access to a safe environment, case management, healthcare, 3 nutritious meals and day, computer lab access and resources to help them become independent. The Fountains has been a part of many church teams who organize, cook and serve an evening meal, prepare personal care kits, and collect clothing and household items.
Women were formerly housed in an old diaper factory in central Phoenix where conditions were less than ideal. Now, at the Halle Women’s shelter, women can be on a path toward a permanent home. UMOM New Day Center that includes services and shelter for families is located at 3333 E. Van Buren, Phoenix and always have ongoing needs. Contact The Fountains 480-837-7627 if you have items to donate or would enjoy being a part of the monthly meal serving team.
