Ways To Stay Involved:

Greater Richmond homeless services providers just launched a campaign to permanently house 90 single adults between now and January 26, 2017. This is our largest sub-population of individuals experiencing homelessness, and extra resources and community support are needed to meet this goal:

• Support the feeding programs taking place currently. They need help with hospitality greeters for people coming to receive food.
• Make bagged lunches for men at The Healing Place and drop them off on Friday for their walk to services on Saturday.
• Provide gift cards to restaurants or convenience stores for meals.
• Offer bus tickets to individuals who lack access to transportation to employment, medical appointments, and other services.
• Run a collection drive for basic kitchen and household items as well as cold weather clothing and shoes.
• Challenge your group to provide flexible funding to pay for the costs that arise when moving to expedite the housing process.
