Sioux Falls, SD, November 4, 2026 — St. Francis House in Sioux Falls has initiated a significant fundraising effort, the ‘Healing Home’ campaign, with the objective of accumulating $1.5 million.

The funds raised will support a crucial campus expansion project designed to address the growing needs of individuals transitioning out of homelessness. The proposed expansion includes the addition of 38 new housing units, which are intended to provide more stable accommodation for those seeking to rebuild their lives.

In addition to housing, the expansion plans also feature dedicated space for partner agencies. This co-located space aims to facilitate a more integrated approach to service delivery, allowing various support organizations to offer their expertise and resources directly to residents on campus. Such collaboration is expected to streamline access to essential services, including but not limited to, employment assistance, mental health support, and life skills training.

The ‘Healing Home’ campaign signifies a strategic move by St. Francis House to enhance its capacity and effectiveness in serving the community. The organization’s focus on creating a comprehensive environment that combines housing with accessible support services underscores its commitment to fostering long-term stability and independence for individuals experiencing homelessness.

Details regarding the timeline for the fundraising campaign and the projected start or completion dates for the construction phases were not immediately available. The specific partner agencies that will utilize the dedicated space were also not specified in the initial announcement.
