Gateway Housing Service Project is a faith-based ministry, open to all people, to inspire hope and provide service through volunteer minor home repair in the St. Louis metropolitan area while fostering servant hearts in St. Louis youth and adults.
We work with fire departments, rehabilitation facilities, and other agencies to identify and prioritize families or individuals in immediate need of ramps, grab bars, and other minor but vital home modifications.
The GHSP goal is to help our neighbors to have adequate and accessible housing and to live in homes without barriers. We make homes accessible. Vital home repair is provided by local youth and adults seeking to serve others through the faith-based ministry. GHSP provides meaningful volunteer opportunities for individuals, teams, companies, groups, and families of all ages. Homeowners and volunteers connect through these projects.
GHSP partners with local agencies to identify and prioritize families or individuals in immediate need of vital home repairs, modifications, or accessibility.
We also collaborate with corporations and local businesses to provide supplies and volunteers.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
To improve the lives of the people we serve by decreasing their burden of home repair and increasing their accessibility to their homes and participation in daily life.
To inspire a servant heart in both youth and adults. To encourage a lifelong commitment to serving others.
To bring people from all of the St. Louis area together--of all races, backgrounds, and faiths and work towards a common goal.
"These are wonderful people. We were looking for someone who could help our daughter Esme who is in a wheelchair. The social worker at Ranken Jordan gave us the name of GHSP, and they have made her bathroom accessible for her. Thank you, GHSP!" (Translated from Spanish)
"Thanks and love to GHSP and everyone who helped and made this possible. I pray this ministry will be able to continue helping those that need it. It is truly a blessing. I try and thank God every time I roll up and down that ramp. Being able to go into my house by myself is an answered prayer."
