Maureen's Haven provides a safe, warm temporary shelter for those who are homeless.
The program operates from November 1 through March 31 and transportation to and from the many Houses of Worship is included in the services provided. Dinner, Breakfast, and bag Lunch plus encouraging support are given by over 1000 volunteers. The growing number of community volunteers and Houses of Worship members have made this program a tremendous success. Without their help, Maureen's Haven would not be possible.
Maureen's Haven is in need of more Houses of Worship to help provide shelter for the homeless. Because of the quality of the program and the increased loss of affordable rental housing in our area, on any given night there could be as many as 35 guests.
In addition the following Houses of Worship and Organizations provide Volunteers at various sites:
Advent Lutheran Church, Community Christian Fellowship, Cutchogue Presbyterian and United Methodist Churches, Mattituck Church of the Redeemer, North Fork Synagogue, Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, Orient Congregational Church, Westhampton Rotary, Westhampton Beach Knights of Columbus and Waldbaums.
