We are incredibly grateful to Community Purse - Northern Illinois Chapter-Northern Illinois Chapter for selecting Pioneer Center's McHenry County PADS Homeless Shelter to be their recent donor recipient.

After being invited to share our mission and the impact of our work with their members, we were honored to be chosen for this generous donation. Recently, Jill Payne and Carol Hinks stopped by our shelter to present the check and learn more about the individuals and families we serve.

The Community Purse brings together local women who combine their charitable giving to make a meaningful impact in our community. Their support will help provide shelter, meals, and critical services for people experiencing homelessness in McHenry County. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us create pathways to stability and hope. #PioneerCenter #PADS #McHenryCounty #CommunityPurse #EndingHomelessness
