Ms. Smith has spent her life working hard, but due to health and mental health challenges, she was forced into early retirement. With no place to turn, she found herself experiencing homelessness. Despite these hardships, Ms. Shelly has taken the courageous step of finding a safe and stable place to call home—one that will accept her as she is. She can afford her rent each month, but the upfront costs of a security deposit and first month’s rent stand in her way. We are reaching out to our loving and generous community to help Ms. Shelly overcome this final obstacle. Your support, no matter the amount, can give her the fresh start she so desperately needs. Thank you for opening your hearts to help Ms. Shelly find safety, stability, and hope.

what happens after your donation

  1. 1

    A Supporter (that’s you!) connects with a story of hopeful progress out of crisis and chooses to support a local neighbor by purchasing their urgent need.

  2. 2

    The money from that purchase goes into a dedicated Stripe© Giving Wall account held by the partner organization whose client had the need met.

  3. 3

    Our partner organization’s Giving Wall lead speedily purchases the need and gives it directly to their client, or pays the bill directly.
