Greenhouse Shelter is Chicago's oldest program for victims of domestic violence. Full to capacity 365 days a year, Greenhouse served 418 women and children in 2007. Over 67% of Greenhouse residents are children fleeing domestic violence with their mothers. Greenhouse residents often walk away from everything they own when they leave abusive relationships. Mothers often arrive in the night with their children wrapped only in blankets.
If your office, organization, church or family would like to help the women and children of Greenhouse Shelter, we are currently in great need of school supplies and strollers for our youngest Greenhouse Residents!
