Virtue House Needs


Our primary need is, of course, financial support. As you can imagine, it is very expensive to house up to eight women. Most of the women who come to stay at VIRTUE House are unemployed when they arrive on our doorstep. They come to us with very few, if any, of the very basic essentials that most of us take for granted. VIRTUE House is funded entirely by individual contributions. We rely solely on the support of people like you to keep our doors open. We are a 501(c)3, non-profit organization, and all of your gifts are tax deductible. If you would like to join in our ministry here at VIRTUE House, please send your donations to: VIRTUE House 2225 S. Franklin St. Rd.
