Malachi Center

Dear Friends,

The holidays are supposed to be a season of comfort and joy. But for too many of our neighbors in Cleveland -- families struggling to make rent, men and women experiencing homelessness, children growing up without stability -- this season is another reminder of how hard life can be.   That’s why Malachi Center exists. 

MATCH OPPORTUNITY:  Please partner with us to reach our goal of $20,000 through #weGiveCatholic Online Day of Catholic Giving.  To help reach our goal, our Board of Trustees have agreed to match donations up to $10,000.

WHY HELP?  We are more than just a building -- we’re a safe place in a neighborhood that’s rapidly changing. Our Center serves as an anchor in the neighborhood’s transformation.   Malachi Center means warmth when it’s cold outside. It means a shower, clean clothes, a meal, and someone who knows your name. It means dignity.  

Here's a testimonial from Roderic, about how his life was changed by Malachi Center.  Many years ago, he slept in a tent.  He came to Malachi Center for clothing, showers, a warm meal, and spiritual guidance.  His life was changed, as he now has been working for many years at MetroHealth.  Listen to Roderic in his own words: 

We partner with many nonprofit organizations so that when someone walks through our doors, they can access MORE, like housing help, hygiene, and after-school programs -- all under one roof. Together, we make sure no one falls through the cracks.

But none of this happens without you. Right now, we need your support more than ever. Demand is rising as families who never needed help before are coming to us because the cost of living is more expensive than ever. The truth is, we cannot turn people away.

This holiday season, you can ensure our doors stay open and our services stay strong. Your year-end gift provides hope, stability, and care at a time when people need it most.

Please, give generously today. Every dollar helps us keep Malachi Center a place where everyone belongs -- no matter what.
