Peer councils of homeless individuals prioritize requests for transportation, skills training, certification renewals, and other basic needs that aren’t easily accommodated by traditional service organizations. $10, $25, or $50 can help eliminate an obstacle that would just be a nuisance for most. Help us provide this opportunity for empowerment, community, and accountability.
Harold’s basic needs keep echoing in my mind… something to eat, a hat, a night off the concrete, and a bus pass.
Journal Entry
February, 2011
We have no residency requirements, which often disqualifies people without valid ID from receiving assistance.
We work directly within the homeless community eliminating their need for additional transportation.
We accept recommendations for grant recipients from a council of recipient peers. Participation in the councils provides an opportunity for a rekindling of responsibility–-and accountability–-and a sense of community.
Our grants are available for an individual’s specific needs that are difficult to accommodate at traditional service organizations.
