None of our guests are charged in any way for the services we provide. We are solely dependent on the financial support we receive from individuals in the community. We hold fundraising events, including community dinners. (Call for information.) We also have a core group of individuals who have committed to monthly support. This support is absolutely crucial to our ability to continue the work we have undertaken with our guests. We are a tax-exempt organization and your donation is deductible as charitable giving. We have no formal affiliation with any other HIV/AIDS service organizations or with the Catholic Church and the Diocese of Syracuse. (There is no formal affiliation of Catholic Worker houses!) As gay men who remain self-identified as Catholic, we seek to stand in prophetic witness to the intrinsic goodness of human sexuality, including gay sexuality. We maintain the Catholic Worker model of opening our home as a means of opening all our lives to the presence of the Human One; the One who is god-among-us. We ask for your public communication of support for people with HIV/AIDS, a commitment to a cure, and, until that day, the continuation of loving, quality care. .

The student-run groups and programs held in the Days-Massolo Center encourage students to discuss topics regarding race, class, gender, sexuality, spirituality, and more. Many students who come to student group meetings and programs are given the opportunity to step out of their comfort zone. In order to ensure that students can do so without having their information misused and abused, the Days-Massolo Center follows the guidelines of a safe space. A safe space refers to an area that does not tolerate discrimination, harassment or any type of negativity towards those who are seen as “different.” This creates a space that is accepting of everyone, therefore people feel safe. With the safe space, students and faculty can be sure that they are coming to an environment that not only is trustworthy but is also free of judgment and full of understanding.
