Become a benefactor of our $11.5 Million campaign to renovate and upgrade Marshall House. Pledge or give now or through your will.

Shelter is more than a roof, it's a foundation for Hope. Together we can build a community where no one faces housing instability alone. Your gift provides more than shelter; It offers safety, belonging and a chance to begin again.

Campaign for Marshall House

The goal is to renovate our space, reinvest in our sheltering program, and most importantly make our guests' experience be filled with comfort, respect and dignity.

Founded in 1974 in Hartford, Marshall House is committed to providing a safe environment, support, and guidance for families who are faced with difficult periods in their lives. Our purpose is to reverse homelessness and give families and individuals a fresh start by helping them transition from homelessness to stability.
