what we do

We are Bring People Together from Diverse Backgrounds

CORE Feeds

This initiative fosters meaningful connections with members of our community who are experiencing homelessness. We provide weekly provisions of food, monthly hygiene packages, and clothing on an as-needed basis, ensuring that their basic needs are met with compassion and dignity

Care Packages

Care packages for the homeless provide essential items and a touch of compassion to those facing the challenges of life on the streets. Packed with necessities like non-perishable food, hygiene products, warm clothing, and blankets, these thoughtful bundles offer a lifeline to individuals in need.

Fresh CORE

This initiative provides shower services to individuals experiencing homelessness, helping them maintain hygiene and dignity. Participants also receive basic essentials, including a towel, a washcloth, a bar of soap, shower shoes and lotion. Clients who sign up for a shower in advance may also receive clothing items.

SIGN-UP FOR A SHOWER

School Essentials Initiative

This initiative promotes collaboration with elementary, middle, and high schools to furnish students with essential items like school supplies, food, toiletries, and clothing. Teachers, counselors, and faculty members are welcomed to complete a request form. Our team, then procures and gathers requested items (based on availability) and assemble the package to be delivered to the respective schools.

Active Program

Shoes For Comfort

Step into Kindness and be a part of a transformative initiative that aims to collect shoes for the homeless. In this compassionate drive, each donated pair becomes a symbol of comfort, offering warmth and dignity to those in need. Join us as we take steps toward making a positive impact, one pair of shoes at a time.

Where the funding goes

The funding encompasses program fees, supplies, certification fees, and state board expenses. We plan to allocate a specific sum to each program, either to benefit a set number of students or the program as a whole. 

Future Programs

Fresh CORE

This initiative offers showers to community members facing homelessness. We are currently raising funds to obtain portable showers. We aim to identify suitable locations around the city where we can conveniently provide this service. Information about this service will be disseminated through our other ongoing programs.

The first crucial step we focus on is restoring their sense of identity. Each participant typically spends three to six months in the program, during which we provide a range of support services.
