Welcome home projectOur goal is to have every REACH family receive a much-needed bump in support and resources as they transition from homelessness to housing. We invite groups, churches, and organizations to become a sponsor of the Welcome Home Program. Funds raised more than $500 will go into the REACH diversion fund which is used to help folks on the verge of becoming homeless.
Contact Pattie Holt, donation coordinator, to learn how your group can make a real and lasting impact in the life of a family by becoming a Welcome Home sponsor. |
We value transparency.
