Our Mission
To uplift and empower women who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness through in-kind support, education and community participation.
Our Vision
To foster equitable communities where all women are seen, valued, and treated with dignity and compassion.

Our Approach

  1. Through volunteer-led gift drives that benefit women who are impacted by homelessness, we build compassionate and connected communities
  2. By distributing essentials of daily living to shelters and community agencies, we support women and gender-diverse people facing income inequality.
  3. By building awareness and educating youth, we challenge stigmas, fight discrimination, and promote equity.

The best antidote I know for worry is work. The best cure for weariness is the challenge of helping someone who is even more tired. One of the great ironies of life is this: He or she who serves almost always benefits more than he or she who is served.
