The Denver/Lake Norman Rotary was happy to welcome Keith Poston, the Executive Director of the Hesed House of Hope in Lincolnton NC, as its speaker at its October 5th meeting.

Keith was born and raised in Lincoln County, graduating from Lincoln High School, and spending his working career employed in the Mecklenburg and Lincoln County area. Keith is married to his spouse Tiffany, and they have two children.

Keith accepted the position of Executive Director of Hesed House of Hope in April 2022. Hesed House is the only homeless shelter in our community. The shelter has a capacity of 32 and is a co-ed shelter. There are two family rooms available in the house. Men and women are allowed to stay for a maximum of four months and then there is a non-return policy for six months after departure. At the shelter there is access to showers, toiletries, food, AA meetings, and help in starting the process for looking for work and applying for benefits.
