About Peachtree Landing
Peachtree Landing began as a dream in 1988. The dream was given this name because landing provides a safe and secure place during a storm, and the blossoms of the peach tree symbolize hope and potential.
Donations
Peachtree Landing is a three-bedroom shelter with a maximum capacity of 16 individuals. On average we are 90% full at all times.
We are a free-standing non-profit, meaning we do not receive any state or federal funding. We operate completely on funds from United Way of Ponca City, Churches, individual contributions, My Favorite Things Resale Shop, and two fundraisers per year. |
Our Team
If we can make a lasting change in just one person's life we are succeeding. Our passion comes from wanting to help people in crisis become a productive member of our community. With a combined 23 years of experience, the staff of Peachtree Landing is well versed in the running of the program.
