GREATEST NEEDS

A gift to SHOW’s Greatest Needs Fund allows us to respond immediately when needs arise — whether it’s covering an unexpected cost, filling a critical funding gap, or strengthening supports that help residents remain safely housed.

This flexible funding empowers our staff to act quickly and compassionately, ensuring residents have access to the wraparound supports, programs, and resources they need to maintain stability, build life skills, and move toward their fullest potential.

When you give to our Greatest Needs Fund, you are helping SHOW provide timely, responsive care — meeting people where they are, when they need it most

SENIORS SUPPORTIVE HOUSING at 144 Erb St. E.

The Seniors Supportive Housing Fund supports older adults living at SHOW’s 144 Erb St. East building — a permanent home for seniors who have experienced homelessness and face barriers to maintaining stable housing.

Your gift helps provide the on-site supports that allow seniors to age safely and with dignity, including life skills programming, wellness supports, community-building activities, and individualized assistance that promotes stability and independence.

By supporting this fund, you are helping older adults remain housed, connected, and supported — reducing isolation, improving quality of life, and ensuring that seniors can thrive in a place they can truly call home

MODULAR HOUSING BUILD AT 362 Erb St. W. 

SHOW’s Modular Housing Fund supports our newest supportive housing development at 362 Erb St. W. — an innovative project designed to provide safe, permanent housing for individuals experiencing or at risk of chronic homelessness.

This modular build represents a faster, cost-effective, and sustainable way to address the growing housing crisis in our community while ensuring residents have access to the wraparound supports that help them remain successfully housed. Donations to this fund help furnish resident units, create welcoming and functional shared spaces, and support the programs and services that foster stability, wellness, and community connection.

By contributing to this fund, you are helping build more than housing — you are helping create a foundation for healing, dignity, and long-term stability for individuals who deserve a safe place to call home
