Give Hope Where You Live

HOPE STARTS HERE

MAKE A DIFFERENCE LOCALLY

Housing Assistance invites you to Give Hope Where You Live (GHWYL)! In the spirit of the season, sign-up to Host a Donation Drive and start collecting essential items + gift cards that will GIVE HOPE to our neighbors in need.

As the days grow shorter and the weather grows colder, we ask you to join us on the frontlines of the Cape and Islands' housing crisis. The items on our GHWYL Wishlist may seem small (e.g. Items for Daily Living, Shelter Guest Care Packages, Welcome Home Baskets) but for someone experiencing homelessness or moving into permanent housing, these items represent comfort, dignity, and a new start.

GIVE-A-THON

NOVEMBER 1 - DECEMBER 10

Housing Assistance will engage our community virtually throughout the Give-A-Thon. This fundraising campaign will celebrate our supporters who are organizing drives and giving in inspiring ways. 

SIGN UP TO HOST A DONATION DRIVE!
