Thank you for making this year's event
a huge success! Nearly 200 people gathered to support
the LPCS on a beautiful June evening, enjoyed fabulous
food, drink, and music, and raised more than $70,000 to
support our programs! This year's special appeal was to
fund Graduate Services. Watch below to hear Graduates,
in their own words, describe the importance of these services,
and why they stay connected to LPCS. To make a
special gift to Graduate Services at LPCS, click
here, and enter "Graduates" in the designation
field.
What is the Lincoln Park Community Shelter? The Lincoln Park Community Shelter (LPCS) is comprehensive
social service agency serving adult men and women who are experiencing
homelessness. Located in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood,
the LPCS has been providing shelter and other basic needs to
our homeless neighbors for over 20 years. Today, the LPCS provides
transitional housing, meals, and a targeted array of social
services to over 450 people each year. More...Guests Speak Out! A new feature on our website showcases the creative
expressions of the individuals here at the Lincoln Park Community
Shelter. Guests have submitted art ranging from poetry to drawings,
creative-nonfiction to photography. Guests have chosen to share
this work with the larger LPCS community as a way of expressing
their unique and diverse perspectives. Click
