Why We Need Your Help and How You Can Donate
To improve the homeless situation in our own "back yard" in a meaningful and continuous way, we need the support of individuals like you. As we are working to erase homelessness in our community, we have to take steps to address not only the current situation, but also the underlying reasons behind the problem. Our programs are designed to address both the problem and the symptoms.

By providing meals and life sustaining items, we can keep our homeless alive a little while longer. That gives us time to truly connect with the homeless and to address their underlying issues. Your support of our foundation allows us to keep these programs running, week after week, year after year. Your support may in fact help take a homeless person off the streets for good.
