On any given night in Erie County, nearly 200 families are without a place to call home. At Family Promise of Western New York, we work every day to fill that gap - providing temporary housing, support and hope to families experiencing homelessness.
We have launched a new Shelter Diversion Program to help “housing-ready” families move directly into stable homes. Meanwhile, our emergency shelter continues to support families with more intensive needs. So far this year we’ve already helped 33 families find housing. That’s more than double the amount of families we housed in ALL of last year!
With so many families starting over, our need for basic supplies has skyrocketed. We need your help to restock!
• $25 = Personal Care Kit for the whole family
• $50 = Moving Bags to keep organized and move with dignity
• $100 = Fresh New Bedding for a small family
• $250 = Baby Essentials for the many babies entering shelter
• $500 = Housewarming Starter Kit for the big move home
Whether you give $25 or $500, you are a part of moving families - especially children - from crisis to stability. We’re not slowing down anytime soon. Please help us continue this vital work.
Family Promise of WNY works alongside families facing homelessness to keep them together, providing housing solutions and tailored support to build lasting stability.
