Story

Every person deserves a safe place to call home and your generosity can make a significant impact, offering hope and a chance for a better future.

Imagine facing the cold nights without a roof over your head, the uncertainty of where your next meal will come from, and the feeling of being invisible to the world. This is the harsh reality for many people experiencing homelessness. But together, we can change this. Your donation can provide warmth, nourishment, and hope to those who need it most. Every contribution is a lifeline, offering a chance for a fresh start and a brighter future.

Let's come together to show that no one is forgotten, that every life matters. Your kindness can light up the darkest of days and bring comfort to those who are struggling.

Jimmy’s Cambridge is marking 30 years of service to the homeless community this year. Founded in 1995 as Cambridge’s first year-round emergency night shelter, Jimmy’s has grown and developed through the years, always with people at the heart of everything we do.
