I serve as Director of Family Promise of the Mid-Willamette Valley and daily work to end homelessness for our neighbors in need. Over the last 21 years, our organization has provided services to over 10,000 people in our community. What's even better - we have a 98% success rate! For many children in our community, we empowered their family to find a safe place to call home.
The COVID-19 pandemic will hit homeless and low-income families harder than other programs. It costs us about $1,200 to rehouse a homeless family or $1,200 to prevent 6 families from becoming homelessness. If you don't need it, would you be willing to give your stimulus check to Family Promise?
