Chico's Torres Shelter in Crisis

Shelter may close doors in 6 weeks!

After serving our community for over two decades, the Torres Community Shelter is experiencing a serious financial crisis that could close their doors in six weeks. You can learn more by watching this recent Action News interview.

They are a much needed 120-bed emergency shelter that serves men, women, and families with children right here in Chico, CA.

Help keep their doors open. Please, consider donating today!
