Location Overview

Brothers’ Keeper Incorporated, a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization, has been a cornerstone in the Northwest Indiana Region for over three decades, dedicated to supporting homeless men and our nation’s Veterans. We temporarily house 30 homeless men who are unemployed, underemployed, unhappily employed, ex-offenders, and Veterans who are amongst the most vulnerable. Shelter residents have access to breakfast and dinner; a warm bed with clean linen including blankets; hot showers; face and bath towels; clothing; and personal hygiene items. We offer them a safe place to sleep, two daily meals, 24-hour shelter access and storage bins for personal belongings.

 

Our Administrative Office hours are Monday-Friday from 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. We can be reached at 219-882-4459.

 

Our food pantry is open to the public from 11:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The pantry is closed on Saturday, Sunday and holidays. We do NOT deliver or provide carry outs.

 

Brothers' Keeper works in partnership with the Foodbank of Northwest Indiana, multiple surrounding churches, neighborhood gardeners, and individual donors to provide food and personal supplies to the community, including the homeless who live in a food desert.

 

Brothers' Keeper is located on the southwest corner of 21st & Broadway.
