Their Overnight Shelter Program provides up to 36 individuals with a safe bed, two meals, showers, and laundry services each and every night.

Beyond providing immediate relief to people experiencing homelessness, Bigger Vision also works to help people meet their long-term needs and achieve housing stability. Their Abundant Life Program works toward their vision of an Athens where everyone has a safe, affordable home. They do this by providing up to five fully-employed individuals experiencing homelessness with continuous shelter for up to six months while they save money and obtain sustainable housing. They could not do this work without the assistance of the generous network of volunteers, donors, and financial supporters in the community!

Looking for other ways to help out? Bigger Vision of Athens has volunteer opportunities to help assist guests and provide meals. Volunteers help Bigger Vision serve over 20,000 meals each year! To learn more about different volunteer opportunities, check out this link here!
