PURPOSE
Our organizations sole purpose and mission is to be impactful to the homeless community and brudge the gap between the local unhoused community and effective support, efficient resources and community engagement. Our passion is to be of service, one homie at a time.
We go out to scout for places where homelessness is prominent; speak to the locals and visit their camps, converse with them, show love by inquiring about their needs ensuring we are providing items that they can actually benefit from. Homies with the Homeless is a NO JUDGEMENT ZONE. We are here to be a glimmer of light in someone else's potential darkness. Every quarter (3-4 months) we strive to give blessing bags out containing all of the essential items listed below:
wool blankets | hats | gloves | socks | hoodies/coats (lightly used or new) | thermal blankets | hand warmers | scarves | ear protection | first aid kits | food | tents | pet food (dog) | shoes (lightly used or new) | water bottles and bottled water | durable bags | chapstick | soap | towels | wipes | nail grooming kits | water flavoring packs | toothbrushes/toothpaste | mouth rinse | umbrellas | deodorant | feminine products | protein supplements |
