Fig Tree is a place to be seen and known, offering a variety of services as well as a gathering place for friendship and community. While striving to create a safe community for everyone, we prioritize our most vulnerable neighbors. We offer showers, laundry, computers, hot meals, and other community resources.
PRAY for the new people we will meet through Fig Tree. Pray for where you might be a part of Fig Tree. Pray for opportunities to share Fig Tree with others.
INVITE people to Fig Tree. You can print these fliers at home and add them to a bag with bottled water and/or shelf-stable snacks to hand to people you meet who may benefit from the resources at Fig Tree. As you interact with friends and neighbors, make sure they know about Fig Tree. All are welcome here.
GIVE financially to Fig Tree by making a monetary donation.
SHOP our Amazon Wish List. We keep Fig Tree stocked with these basic-needs items and household items for when our unhoused neighbors secure housing.

A Traveler Bag is a small bag with a bottle of water and shelf-stable food items that you can keep with you in your car. As you encounter folks who could benefit from the services at Fig Tree, share the bag with them. You can print these fliers at home and add them to your bag to share the details of Fig Tree.
