COVID-19 Update and Emergency Needs

ITS HUH (In the Streets-Hands Up High) is a family shelter and soup kitchen in Bastrop near Austin, Texas. We give families the ability to live together in an emergency shelter instead of splitting them up during times of hardship. More marriages fail when they are separated during a crisis situation. They are able to save up for themselves. Over 50% of the families move into their own residence after they stay here temporarily.

URGENT SHELTER UPDATE:
​
We do not have a septic tank for the veteran family shelters and we desperately need one before we can open them up to families!​

We really need your help to get a septic tank installed for the veteran family shelters. We appreciate your contribution towards this cause.
​
​WE NEED $15,707 MORE TO REACH OUR GOAL! Any amount helps.​

We are a 501(c)(3) organization and all contributions are tax deductible. ​

2020 Expansion Update

The S.A.F.E. shelter expansion that began in May 2019 is progressing extremely well and we can only thank God for this progress! We are still in need of funds to supply all the needs for the expansion and the new move-ins that come with expanded shelter homes. Thank you for helping us with the new shelter homes.
