We can't fight homelessness without your help
The housing crisis is now a national emergency. We believe that a safe home is a fundamental need and basic moral right. By fundraising for Shelter in the Skydive for Shelter you can join the fight to defend that right.
Every mile run, every drop of sweat, and every pound raised will make a difference.
It was the most amazing experience you will have and the Shelter team will look after you very well.
