Why Goshen exists

A message from our founder

Mrs. Ajibola Hassan-Odukale

Survivor story

From fear to freedom

“When I arrived at Goshen with my three children, I was at one of the lowest points of my life. Goshen became a place of safety, care and restoration for us. Beyond providing shelter, the support and guidance we received helped me rebuild my confidence, regain stability and create a better future for my children. Today, I look back with gratitude for the hope, love and opportunity to begin again.”

O.J. — Former Resident of Goshen Shelters

“Goshen was a place where I found safety, peace and the opportunity to begin again. When I arrived with my children, I was uncertain about the future, but the care, support and encouragement we received helped me regain my confidence and rebuild my life. The shelter gave us more than a place to stay — it gave us hope, stability and the strength to move forward.”

A.R. — Former Resident of Goshen Shelters

“When I came to Goshen Shelters, I was at a difficult point in my life and needed a safe place to rebuild. Goshen provided my children and me with care, support, encouragement and an environment where healing was possible. Through the skills training and empowerment opportunities I received, I gained confidence and the ability to pursue my dreams. Today, I am rebuilding my life with hope, peace and purpose.”

C.L.O - Status: Former Resident of Goshen Shelters

“Goshen welcomed me when I had nowhere to go,they gave me and my children a home. They gave me a safe place to stay, food, counseling, and showed me I was not alone. My life changed - I found my voice and peace again. Today I have a small business and my children are safe in school. My hope for the future is to go back home to South Africa, be independent and help other women find safety.”
