Our Shelters

SUMS Place

SUMS Place was the first shelter established and continues to serve as the cornerstone of our work today. What began as a temporary refuge during extreme weather has evolved into a 24/7 shelter providing safety, support, and hope to individuals experiencing homelessness.

For more than a decade, SUMS Place has offered thousands of people a warm meal, a safe place to stay, and access to the resources they need to move forward. It remains a place of belonging, dignity, and care for our community's most vulnerable neighbours.


The Olive Branch

Opening during the height of the pandemic, The Olive Branch continued a partnership between Fraser Health and the SUMS Place by providing Medical and Mental Health services directly on site.

As one of the first shelters in the Lower Mainland to offer the Managed Alcohol Program, the Olive Branch has been at the forefront of innovation for care and stability in Surrey.


The Cove

The COVE was opened to provide appropriate shelter for residents of Central Surrey who had started a community in an undeveloped section of land between Scott Road Station and Gateway Station. Since serving those original 42 community members, it has now supported hundreds of unique clients in a caring environment.
