Currently, there are 35 residents, men and women, in the Haven House Year-Round Shelter due to "social distancing" during the COVID-19 crisis. The shelter is currently open 24/7.
2 Please provide dinner for 37 individuals. Your generosity ensures second helpings for Haven House residents. 3 If you will have youth (under the age of 18) in your group helping, they must be supervised by an adult at all times. Please inform them of kitchen etiquette and to be observant! Lots of things can burn/hurt you; be aware of what others are doing especially when walking near someone; enter/exit the kitchen cautiously; wear a hat or hairnet at all times, etc. 4 You can access our stove, two convection ovens, and prep space starting at 4:15 pm. Serving utensils, bowls, platters, etc. are available in our kitchen for your use. IMPORTANT! Please bring your own knives -- chopping parring, carving, bread slicing, etc. Interfaith provides plates, silverware, napkins, and drinks. If you are serving soup or chili, please provide bowls. If you want to bring paper plates, you can. 5 The kitchen is open NO EARLIER than 4:15 pm if you are using our kitchen to prepare dinner. If using your slow-cooker, you can arrive early in the day to start the meal. Please talk to a chef to let him know. Please arrive BY 6:15 pm if you have a prepackaged meal to set up. You can start serving dinner when you are ready, usually at 6:30 pm. 6 There is a five position steam table for your use to keep food warm (not for cooking).
7 Please do NOT use the flattop grill/griddle unless you meet with our chef before the day you are scheduled to cook to learn how to properly clean it. IMPORTANT! Please use the BBQ rather than the grill/griddle to cook hamburgers. Send an email to Mitchell if you would like details about using the BBQ. 8 CLEAN UP! Please clean up after meal service. A chef will be available until 6:00 pm to show you how to use the dishwasher, etc. (it's simple). A few Haven House residents and staff usually help too. NOTE: When you arrive, you might see people cleaning up. They are doing that task for another program's meal and are NOT available to help clean up for Haven House dinners. 9 In the event you need assistance during dinner service due to an unforseen situation or emergency, please call Haven House Resident Coordinators at: First: 760-803-0877; Second: 760-489-6380, ext. 267; Third: 760-803-6271 Important! Please identify yourself as the Haven House Dinner provider. 10 In case of a double dinner booking (it can happen), please work together. Food does not go to waste here! Any leftover food is used the next morning at Interfaith's daily Morning Soup Kitchen.

In a Pinch (IAP) dinners have been very helpful in fullfilling open dinner nights at the shelter. If you look at the calendar and see red text, those nights were filled by IAP dinners. By donating $125, you enable Interfaith staff to purchase or cook dinner on nights when volunteers have not signed up to bring dinner. An in-kind donation receipt will be mailed to you after you make the monetary donation. You can drop off or send cash, a check, or pay online. Please reference "Haven House IAP". If you do not reference Haven House IAP, we will not have access to the funds. Please send me an email if you do send cash or a check, so I can keep track of what we receive. If you donate IAP funds, we will have the food ready and your volunteers can still help serve it!
