FSHNC, Inc.

Our mission and purpose is to help indigent and all alcoholic men make a new beginning
in sobriety.

Indigent: lacking the basic and spiritual necessities of life.

Our Values

  • Privately Funded: We are 100% privately funded to preserve autonomy and ensure proper focus.
  • Volunteers: Volunteers are the heart of our program. Our home is run by an all-volunteer committee of sober, kind, and devoted men.
  • Service to others: We are devoted to helping indigent and all alcoholic men.
