We are excited to introduce our 2024 Community Impact Report. We operate an Oct 1 to Sept 30 fiscal year, so we have spent the past few weeks closing out our year, reviewing program outcomes, and reflecting on those we have served. Read the report at heyzine.com/flip-book/b41d98…
There are strong feelings out there about the outcome of the election. You may be tempted to throw in the towel. We never condone giving up but we are suggesting in this one instance, you THROW IN THE TOWEL! Turn despair into community repair!
Hi friends! There will be some neighborhood work on the water pipes on our street, so we will be closed for lunch Wednesday, October 2nd. Stop by and join us for breakfast, though.

Another SNAP E&T career path is customer service. Students learn call center basics and sales training to prepare for positions in retail, customer service, call center, and hospitality industries. Participants need Workforce Essentials @AmosHouse course. Classes start on 9/4
ADVOCACY ALERT! Our state is facing a 76% cut to the homeless shelter budget which will have grave implications for Rhode Island's shelter system. Please join us for a rally at the State House on April 23rd at 3:00pm. Together we can make our voices heard!

During our “Day of Service” we served almost 500 lunches at Amos House today! Nothing compared to President Eileen Hayes, Executive Chef Mike McCarthy and their staff who do this every day! @AmosHouse

There are so few positive stories on homelessness - this is one - providencejournal.com/story/…
Kudos to @markpatinkin - @AmosHouse #Charlesgate #homeless #homelessness
Family homelessness is at a crisis level in Rhode Island. Thank you to @markpatinkin and @projo for highlighting the very real stories of families accessing family shelter. You can support this program and many more through the final day of @401Gives . providencejournal.com/story/…
Amos House offices, Soup Kitchen, and outside programming will be closed Tuesday, Feb 13th due to inclement weather. All housing and shelter programs will operate as usual.If you see someone in need of help please call 911. If you are in need of help, call PEMA by dialing 311.
Stop by for lunch today and get a winter coat too! Warm yourself from the inside with a lunch of a hearty bacon cheeseburger and homemade beef chili and warm yourself on the outside by grabbing a winter coat at our coat distribution event. Both run from 11:00 to 12:30. Stay warm!
The air is crisp and leaves are falling and that means - Socktober is here! We distribute thousands of socks each fall and winter, yet they are some of the least frequently donated items. There's still time to help out. Questions? Give us a call at 401-831-9866.
In September, we served 16,482 free prepared meals to the community at our Soup Kitchen site. Thank you to @UNFI for a Hunger Awareness Month partnership that covered the cost of every meal served in September. We are so fortunate to call you a part of the Amos House family!
We need diapers! Currently, 41 families live in Amos House's Family Emergency Shelter, and many of the children there are still in diapers. Can you help? Donations can be dropped off at or shipped to our main facility at 460 Pine St. Providence, 02907.
Join us! We’ve got some exciting new career opportunities and we may be biased, but we think this is a pretty great place to work. 😎

September is Hunger Awareness Month and @UNFI made a generous donation to cover the food cost of all meals served this month. More than 17,000 meals will be distributed from our Soup Kitchen by the end of this month. Thank you! #HungerAwareness #CommunitySupport
