Urban Ministry and Men’s Shelter of Charlotte combined to create Roof Above, and together they have created a single powerful entity to tackle the needs of the homeless community. The focus of this endeavor is to make sure every member of our community has, as the name suggests a ‘Roof Above’ their head. Roof Above will soon open a new shelter, designed not just to meet the basic needs of its guests, but also to help men emerge from homelessness. The modern facility includes office space for on-site case management, as well as housing and employment services. The new facility will also add a cooking kitchen, guest laundry services, and a group room for classes and a computer lab. SouthWood is proud to be supporting this endeavor both through the signage we created for the facility, and through a monetary donation. One of our main priorities at SouthWood is to find ways to give back to and nurture our community, and we work toward this goal every single day.
