Nativity House

Here are some local resources to help beat the heat and stay safe.

We're experiencing high temperatures across the region! We've compiled a list of cooling centers and resources available across Pierce County today, Monday, June 15, 2026. Don't forget, free rides to cooling centers courtesy of Pierce Transit.

Prime Day is coming up and we'd like to share our Nativity House Summer Wish List in hopes that community members may be willing to help. We have a VERY high need for things like men's underwear and men's summer clothing, and we are hoping to boost our supply of essentials like towels and blankets. Thank you for your support! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3IMVEQKESEILT?ref_=wl_share

Thank you to ALL of the generous community members who have donated bath towels. Nativity House Shelter is VERY grateful for your support!

Here's some info about a cool community resource event being hosted by Associated Ministries.

Nativity House Shelter would like to take a moment to wish all the moms in our community a wonderful Mother's Day. This includes all of our shelter guests, volunteers, staff, donors and ladies in our community making the magic of motherhood work every day. May today be full of all the things that bring you joy.

As Volunteer Appreciation Month comes to a close we’d like to spotlight the amazing volunteer team from Korsmo Construction. They cook and serve dinners at Nativity House Shelter. We are grateful for their kindness, generosity and culinary creativity. Their dinners are always a huge hit and guests have been asking when we get them again. All of us are eager to have Korsmo Construction out again this June.

During Volunteer Appreciation Month, we want to stress the importance of kindness. A few hours here and there might not seem like a lot but it adds up. It compounds and accumulates with interest. Kindness inspires others to be kind and cultivates a community of kindness. This is one of the powers of volunteerism and why it matters so much.
