Become a Volunteer to Help People Experiencing Homelessness

Join us on our mission to uplift individuals experiencing homelessness through our "Empowering Our Relatives" initiative. The EOR program focuses on providing crucial resources and support to unhoused individuals, helping them move towards self-reliance and long-term stability.

Every month, on the last Saturday, we unite at McPherson Square Park to provide fresh food and produce, first aid and personal care, health services and education, and vocational workshops, fostering hope and empowerment for our community members in need.

Event Details:
