Every parent and child facing homelessness deserves a stable place to live, a home to return to at the end of the day.Nearly three years ago, we launched the Making Room Campaign with a bold hope: to strengthen housing and mental health support for families facing homelessness and to help more Bridge of Hope communities grow across the country. Since then, rental housing costs have continued to rise, and family homelessness increased by 39% this past year alone. The need keeps pressing us to try to do more.Because of the growing need, we’ve set a new campaign stretch goal of $9.3 million, up from our original $8.4 million goal.Will you help us cross the finish line?Give.

An important step in achieving housing stability through Bridge of Hope is that families are able to increase their income. To help parents accomplish their employment goals, we have a partnership with Soyica White to provide them with one-on-one career exploration and coaching. Parthenia received coaching from Soyica and was able to move up in her career, including receiving a pay increase! Soyica says his approach is to meet people where they are. “[Bridge of Hope participants] are ready for change, which makes my job easier,” he said.
