Hotel de Zink

Hotel de Zink provides temporary shelter and support for individuals in need. Learn more about our efforts to serve the homeless through this compassionate outreach program.

Caring for The Unsheltered

For the month of December we're partnering with Friends Meeting House to host Hotel de Zink, a fantastic overnight shelter organization. We will be housing 10-12 homeless guests each night at our 3373 Middlefield Campus in Palo Alto.

We'd love your help with this very practical and direct ministry to our unsheltered neighbors!

How to help

Step 1: Sign up

You can sign up as a group, as a bible study, as an individual, as a family, etc. To start the process, simply follow this link:

Step 2: Make Food

Step 3: Drop off or stay and share!

Drop off is easy. Meals just need to be at the Palo Alto campus between 7:00-7:30pm on the day you sign up for, and they need to be delivered in disposable containers. If you’d like to stay and share the meal with our guests, you are welcome and encouraged to do so! It a great way to be present in relationship with our guests.

Cost

Finally, we know that the cost of preparing a meal for 15 can be concerning for some. If your heart says “yes!” but your wallet says “hold up!,” just keep your receipts, reach out to Jake, and we will work out a reimbursement for you from our Benevolence Fund.
