During the month of April, staff at SCI Chester participated in a 3-on-3 staff tournament. The purpose of this was to raise money for the Wesley House.

The Wesley House is a homeless shelter for single women or families. The shelter has 17 rooms for guests and is typically at full capacity of 70 people on any given day. It serves an average of 240 individuals (75 households) per year. Wesley House has a state-of-the-art computer training room for clients to improve their computer skills, search for employment, and secure permanent housing. Financial literacy (Money Smarts) classes are offered as well as the Catholic Social Services Out of Poverty Program, enrichment classes, nutrition classes, medical assessments through Horizon House, respite care for needy children and toys during the holiday season. Staff raised $320 and donated bags of clothing.
