Before the cold of winter set in, we met this goal together to empower more families to achieve a home of their own.
We set out this year to DOUBLE our family capacity by recruiting a second round of 13 Host Congregations.
You all, our community, have responded in BIG ways. Thank you!!
The week of November 4, we launched the first step in our expansion, from 4 to 6 families. In 2019, we’ll increase to 8 families.
This is such a gift. To families facing a homeless crisis. To our community. To Congregations and volunteers, who stand perfectly positioned to be an answer to this need.
We created this video to help explain how the Rotation Program works.
The Day House functions as a central hub. Each Host Congregation takes one week per quarter, to provide shelter, meals, and transportation to 3 families. A second group of Host Congregations does the same, so every night of the year, SIX families are cared for in the program. Support Congregations and Groups pitch in with meals, volunteers, and supplies.
What a caring extended family!
Family Promise of Greater Wichita unites hearts and hands to provide compassionate hospitality and empower homeless families with children to achieve sustainable independence. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
