CampCONNRI photoThis past month, members and staff of the Fellowship Place social club took a 5-day group trip to Camp CONNRI in Ashford, CT. The camp, accredited by the American Camping Association, the State of Connecticut, and The Salvation Army, offered a variety of fun in the sun and creative activities including swimming, kayaking, hiking, arts and crafts, and so much more. An exciting time was had by all and everyone is looking forward to returning next year!

The New Haven PDCA give the Fellowship Inn a fresh new look

During the early morning hours of Friday, April 5, the New Haven Chapter of the PDCA (Painters and Decorating Contractors of America) donated their time, skills and supplies to give our Homeless Engagement Inn a fresh new look. Over a dozen volunteers arrived on our campus to help paint the inside of the Inn. Every year the PDCA does a Paint UP project for a non-profit, Fellowship Place is honored to have been selected this year. Because of their generous efforts, the men & women attending the Inn have a brighter space to come to daily.
