Ways to Get Involved

Homeless people are not who I expected!

I WANT TO:

Be a VOICE for my homeless neighbors. 
I will contact my state, local and national elected officials to let them know I want them to help my homeless neighbors.  Sign me up to receive action alerts about important issues as they come before my elected officials.

For Email Marketing you can trust

STAY INFORMED about homelessness in my community. 
I want to receive the Homeless Coalition’s weekly e-newsletter, The Responder.

For Email Marketing you can trust

SUPPORT the Homeless Coalition’s efforts to help my homeless neighbors.

Donate Your Used Car , Truck, Van or SUV through Cars4Charities - Cars4Charities is a truly unique, not-for-profit, car donation center. When you donate car, truck, van or SUV to our car donation center, we'll send the entire net proceeds to the charity you select from our extensive list.

VOLUNTEER to help my homeless neighbors.
Tell me more about volunteer opportunities at the Homeless Coalition or member agencies. 

LEARN MORE AND EDUCATE others about my homeless neighbors. 
Schedule our speakers bureau to speak in your classroom, at your Rotary Club, Sunday school class or other group/organization.  Learn more about the Coalition's "Unexpected Faces, Unexpected Places" Speakers Bureau.
