November 1 – December 15, 2025
Every night, over 2,700 people in our city face the cold, uncertainty, and loneliness of life on the streets. This holiday season, we have the chance to change that story. The Holiday Big Give is a citywide call to action — a collective effort to raise $500,000 so that more people can move off the streets and onto their path to home. When schools, businesses, churches, and families come together, hope becomes possible. Will you join us?
Providing hope and dignity to those in need
Whether it’s poverty, homelessness, or a personal crisis, our mission goes beyond providing essential services—we’re committed to transforming lives and creating a clear path to home for those who need it most, starting with our 365 Days of Rest initiative, providing safe resting spaces, warm meals, and vital support every day of the year. Together, we can build a world where no one is left behind.

Each act of kindness restores dignity and transforms lives. Here’s what your support has made possible so far in 2025:
