It's not a motel.

It's housing that heals.

For more than 24 years, Joshua Station has transformed what was once a roadside motel along I-25 into a community where Denver families can find stability, belonging, and hope.

This year, that story reached an incredible milestone: together, we raised $1.7 million to fully fund the renovations that strengthened Joshua Station for the families who call it home today—and those who will in the years ahead.

You made this possible. Thank you!

We did it—together.

Joshua Station’s transformation is complete, creating safer, more beautiful and dignified homes for the families who live here.

And now, thanks to an extraordinary community of donors, partners, churches, foundations and friends, the full $1.7 million renovation has been funded.

That is something worth celebrating.

These renovations were necessary to preserve a beloved community—but along the way, something even bigger happened. New people stepped into the story of Joshua Station, longtime friends showed up again and again, and together we made an investment that will serve families for years to come.

$1.7 million raised. 100% funded.

What is Joshua Station?

When you drive past this building on I‑25, you might assume it’s just another old motel. But look again.

This isn’t a place where people check in and check out. It’s where families check into a new life.

At Joshua Station, we welcome parents and children who’ve endured the trauma of homelessness — and offer them more than a room. We offer stability. We offer dignity. We offer hope.

Because it’s not a motel. It’s a mission.

A Need We Can't Ignore

Over 3,000 families in Denver are currently unhoused

living in cars, couch-surfing, or worse. Joshua Station exists to change that reality. And you can help us.

Housing That Heals

Real-Life Stories of Transformation

"I hadn’t slept in a bed of my own since 2018."

“The moment I walked into my new room at Joshua Station, I cried just seeing the bed. I hadn’t slept in a bed of my own since 2018. At best I would be in my car for naps or hiding on a workplace floor, going weeks hardly sleeping at all.”

- Jenny

"I hadn’t known if we could make it as a family."

“When I came to Joshua Station, my self-confidence was very, very low. When my family advocate showed me into our unit and I saw a beautiful sign that said ‘Family,’ it made me cry. I hadn’t known if we could make it as a family."

- Maria

"I was able to accomplish so many things that I had put off for so many years."

“My time here at Joshua Station was a time for me to work on myself as a person and to work towards being a better mom. I was able to accomplish so many things that I had put off for so many years, having a place to call home was such a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.”

- Crystal
