Broad Street Ministry is now Broad Street Love. Learn more about our new name.
All Are Welcome Here
Broad Street Love provides stabilizing services to those experiencing deep poverty. Rooted in dignity and care, we offer an open, safe space for hundreds of guests every weekday.
We Practice Radical Hospitality
Broad Street Love embraces every guest with empathy and care. Our practice of Radical Hospitality means reaching beyond the traditional norms of social service. Our mission is to create connection and community, restore hope and dignity, and increase security and self-sufficiency.
our services
We provide responsive service offerings to bring our guests closer to the stability they need. We offer our guests a daily meal, alongside other essential services:
Concierge Services
The path to getting access to the right services can be complicated. That’s why Broad Street Love offers a personalized approach, working one-on-one with guests. Concierges help guests find work, create a mailing address, find medical and behavioral health care, apply for benefits, navigate and advocate for shelter and housing, and more. Even if we don’t offer the services guests need, we direct them to the partners and resources they are looking for.
our IMPACT
Broad Street Love is the nexus of social services in Philadelphia. We welcome over 400 guests every weekday for meals, mail, and whatever else they may need, as we work toward breaking the cycles of poverty, hunger, and housing insecurity.

Get Involved
Our mission is made possible with the help of our community of donors, partners, and volunteers. From financial contributions to volunteer hours and in-kind donations of clothing, food, and other essentials, all support makes a difference.
“I feel like a member of society again. I didn’t ever think I was going to make it this far. I’m so happy to get my life started.”
