The Private Sector is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) public charity dedicated to responding to the needs of the young, the old, the hungry, and the homeless. We believe that in sharing our abundance with others, we realize our true wealth as a nation.

For nearly 30 years, the mission of The Private Sector has been able to provide aid and housing for low-income families and individuals. Thousands of people have already benefitted from the food, shelter and support offered through the Sanctuary and food programs which re-distributes surplus goods and puts them directly in the hands of people of all ages who need it the most.

Natural resources are also dwindling and modern industrial culture has impacted the environment negatively. Because of this reality, providing a more environmentally friendly shelter is a goal of The Private Sector. Having the houses used for the Sanctuary program be comfortable and more energy-efficient while using sustainable building and renovation methods including recycled and renewable materials, alternative energy, and green technology is a significant part of the strategy to achieve that goal. 

The Private Sector seeks to serve the low-income elderly, who are challenged to provide for themselves in dignity and comfort. The residences we use are multi-generational because the most gratifying life includes relating with people of all ages.
