Brighter Day Campaign 2024

A Brighter Day Starts with Home!

Facing Forward to End Homelessness is a Chicago-based nonprofit that provides housing, critical resources, and family-wide support services that help our neighbors build stability, improve their mental and physical health, and access empowering education and employment opportunities. Just last year, Facing Forward served nearly 3,000 children and adults in our community.

This May, during our Brighter Day campaign, we need your help to raise $80,000 which can provide a full month of stable housing and supportive services for 80 families in our program!

Our community needs your support! Every dollar counts, and thanks to a generous anonymous funder, all new and increased gifts will be matched (up to $7,500 per gift)!

HOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE:

• $25 = 1 week of transportation to job interviews or job training
• $50 = 1 basket of home essentials to help a new family settle in
• $125 = 1 month of help with co-pays and medications
• $250 = 1 complete school uniform set for one child
• $500 = 2 beds and bedding for children in our programs
• $1,000 = 1 month of housing + supportive services for 1 family

Your contribution helps break the cycle of homelessness, providing families with the resources they need to rebuild their lives and create a better future. Help end homelessness and housing instability for more of our neighbors!

Together, we can make it a Brighter Day—one that starts with a safe and stable home for everyone! Read more about Facing Forward's work and stories of success at www.ffchicago.org.
