Our HOST and HOAP Programs offer those facing homelessness support that will help them take steps toward an enhanced quality of life with the ultimate goal of obtaining self-sufficiency. Please consider making a donation to one of our special initiatives. Simply select which project you’d like your funds to go to when you make your donation.
We invite you to contribute to our transitional programs by donating items from our Amazon Wish List. Your support helps us provide essential resources and support to those in need throughout the year.
Each item on our list has been carefully selected to meet the needs of our participants, and your generous donation will make a significant impact.

Barrier funds are used to pay for:
