In a time when the world can feel less safe and supportive, we believe it’s more important than ever to come together to offer aid and compassion to those who need it most. Throughout the year, we’ll share ways for you to get involved, helping to create a ripple effect of good deeds across the streets of Boise and beyond.

We are a sanctuary for all genders, races, religions and sexual orientations. Our guests include those with disabilities and major health issues; the unemployed and underemployed; those who lack access to education or are priced out of housing; unhoused seniors; and LGBTQIA+ community members.

Interfaith Sanctuary Shelter is home for a warm meal and a safe place to lay your head for all genders, races, religions, and sexual orientation. We are a sanctuary for families with children allowing them to find shelter together.

Members of our community give to Interfaith Sanctuary in so many ways, through volunteering at the shelter, providing in-kind gifts, hosting events, and offering monetary donations.
