Thanks to everyone who have had such a quick response in helping out this project. Here is a picture of work in progress on the building inside one of the bedrooms. The sink in this picture will be replaced by a bed. :-)
Since 2016 DIAL/SELF & The Friends of Hampshire County Homeless Individuals have been working with many individuals and organizations to realize a dream of building safe and affordable places for young people experiencing homelessness in Hampshire County to live and learn in.
We are SO CLOSE to completing the development of a property in Northampton with 4 efficiency apartments, two 2-bedroom apartments and a program space to engage with community youth.
We are only about a month away from finishing construction and moving youth on our waiting list into the new furnished apartments. Together we have raised approximately $1,383,000 but we need your help to finish this.
Can you believe we only need $150,000 to finish funding this project for youth in need?!
Can you please consider giving at one of these levels? $150, $250, $500, $1000 or more…
If you are done with your 2019 donations, please consider giving in January.
