Your Gift Funds a Resident Advocate — A Lifeline for Stability.

When residents move into permanent supportive housing, their case management often fades over time — but the need for help doesn’t.

That’s where the Resident Advocate comes in. This hands-on role provides daily, practical support — from transportation and home organization to job readiness and connecting residents to community resources. The Resident Advocate ensures no one falls through the cracks once they have housing.

Help Us Raise $50,000 to Unlock the Firstenburg Foundation’s $50,000 Challenge Match.

The Firstenburg Foundation has pledged $50,000 to fund our new Resident Advocate position — but only if we raise $50,000 from our community first.
That means every donation, large or small, moves us closer to unlocking this vital funding and providing year-round, hands-on support for our residents.

Together, we can meet the challenge — and fully fund this essential position.
