Found House (formerly IHN) Hosting

For nearly three decades, Wise Temple has hosted families experiencing temporary homelessness. Yet, if you’ve never seen it in action, it may be hard to understand this powerful mitzvah.

WHAT IT IS

The Wise Family Shelter is part of Found House of Greater Cincinnati (Formerly IHN). The Wise Family Shelter provides shelter and compassion to families experiencing temporary homelessness.

HOW IT WORKS

Wise Temple classrooms are transformed into cozy bedrooms, and the program room into a welcoming living room space. Wise Temple is one of many local congregations that provides families a safe place to stay while Found House helps them to find permanent housing and financial stability. Without congregations like Wise Temple, it would be difficult for some families to stay together.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

Volunteers work together to provide food, fun, and a comfortable, home-like environment for families during their stay at Wise Temple. This is the perfect opportunity for families with children of all ages to do a mitzvah! Newborn babies to grandparents make the best volunteers.
