Be Our Guest 2020

We invite you to celebrate our fifth annual gala, Be Our Guest, from your home. Throughout the pandemic, Broad Street Ministry has remained a constant resource for Philadelphians experiencing deep poverty. While we work towards establishing new and safer ways of providing our services during these challenging times, our commitment to our community remains unchanged.

In 2019 we served 71,116 meals to 6,191 unique guests. We provided a safe mailing address for 5,015 people; distributed 15,239 pieces of clean clothing and shoes; provided 43,769 toiletries, socks and underwear; and welcomed 169 guests into our reentry program.

Our services look different in 2020, but your support allowed us to continue to innovate and envision what radical hospitality looked like during a pandemic rather than shut our doors.
