About Bedford Men's Warming Shelter

The Men's Warming Shelter is a low-barrier, cold-weather, overnight shelter for any and all men experiencing homelessness. Started in 2014 following a great tragedy in our community - the freezing death of an unknown, unsheltered homeless man - the faith leaders of our community came together to start a safe refuge for men to spend the winter. Today, the Men's Warming Shelter provides both basic needs - warm comfortable beds, hot home-cooked meals, showers and clean clothes - as well as support services including medical and mental health care, addiction treatment, education and job training opportunities, and housing placement. Our greatest asset is our community: the amazing churches, organizations, government agencies, and private citizens, who work together to provide a place of love, peace, and hope for our shelter guests.

We invite you to be a part of our upcoming 5k/1m fundraiser, the Coldest Night of the Year, on February 22nd, 2025. We can walk together, increase homelessness awareness together, and raise funds to serve those in need together. Sign up today as a team leader or join a team, become a volunteer, make a donation, or help spread the word, and know that YOU are making a difference right here in Lawrence County!
