In December, Talbot Interfaith Shelter took a significant step forward in its mission by purchasing a new building—a former hospital daycare and IT office that had sat unused for years. Thanks to a generous donor, the building was acquired at an excellent price and will now house the shelter’s development office and conference room. This will ease space constraints at Evelyn’s Place and allow more use for people in need of housing.
The Spy spoke with Executive Director Julie Lowe about what this milestone means for the organization and its mission. We also discussed the TIS’s financial needs as the nonprofit enters a new era that anticipates less support from the state and national government levels in the upcoming years.
One way the community can support the Talbot Interfaith Shelter is to participate in their annual Lip Sync Battle 2025 on April 26 at the Waterfowl building in Easton. Doors open at 6:00; show starts at 7:00. For more information, please go here.
