Through our mission, we work "to find and care for the abandoned poor and to be family with those who have none."

Bethesda Project is a nonprofit organization that provides shelter, housing, and supportive services across 15 locations to adults experiencing homelessness in Philadelphia. Here, our guests and residents experience a safe environment — and most importantly — a home where they can stabilize, regain their dignity and self-worth, and find community.

At Bethesda Project, we meet people where they are.

Bethesda Project operates a continuum of care throughout Center City Philadelphia utilizing a Housing First approach that minimizes barriers to access and allows each individual to take their journey of healing at one's own pace. We also provide guests and residents with individualized case management which helps guests and residents become more stably housed and increase their overall independence.

The Party & Auction provides attendees an opportunity to see Reading Terminal Market like before. Enjoy a sampling of food from vendors, a silent auction, a 50/50 raffle, and more! Celebrate with us as we honor 45 years of Bethesda Project history and our shared accomplishments as a community. All funds raised from this event allow Bethesda Project to provide emergency shelter, housing, and supportive services for individuals experiencing homelessness.

Keep up with Bethesda Project!

One week from today, #SCOTUS will hear the case of Johnson v. Grants Pass: A landmark case challenging the legality of penalizing people for being homeless. At Bethesda Project we strongly believe that everyone deserves the right to housing - in Philadelphia and across the country. No one should be punished for not having a place to sleep. Learn more about the upcoming case via the link in our bio, and help us in our work to provide shelter by donating financially or volunteering.

Lights, camera, ACTION! 🎥 Thank you @yeepix for coming by and capturing what makes Bethesda Project so special. 🩵
