Lodi House is a private non-profit organization with the goal of creating a secure, structured environment for homeless women and children.
A private non-profit organization, Lodi House depends greatly on financial gifts and partnerships of its supporting community. Every gift makes a difference.
Our boutique was started to create a revenue stream to help Lodi Houses Programs. The store is stocked with items generously donated by the community.
The Lodi House is a small home-like shelter with a program uniquely designed to help women and children achieve long-term stability in family life, finances, employment and housing.
We are committed to providing healthy relationships, accountability and resources to those who come to us for help. Guests may stay two to six months to reach their goals of employment, saving money and securing permanent housing.
“I often tell God, ‘I don’t know what I did to deserve to be so blessed like this.”
“Five months ago I was eating out of a dumpster behind McDonalds on Lodi Avenue and today I am using my degree as a drafter, saving money, and working toward complete independence.”
“I am really grateful for the connections that I’ve made and the staff always being there to help me. I’ve learned way more about myself and how to be willing to grow and understand.”
“I am grateful for the grace and empathy I have received and a safe place for my children to come home. I’ve learned that I’m capable of raising my children alone.”
“Lodi House has given me the opportunity to be the strong, independent, amazing woman I had always dreamed of being.”
“The most valuable part of the program is not having to worry about having a bed and running water so you can focus on interviewing and getting a job. That is what I needed.”
