In the advent of rising rent prices and cost of living hikes, the need for support, services, and hope is at an all time high. To help meet these needs we are setting our most ambitious End-Of-Year goal, ever! Luckily, a generous group of supporters has offered a Matching Gift Challenge, meaning they will match, dollar for dollar, every gift received before January 31, until we reach our goal! For a limited time, your gift will provide DOUBLE the impact!

When 36-year-old William Diaz was homeless, he didn’t ponder his future. Instead, his days were consumed with finding a place to sleep, warmth and his next meal. “The whole time I kept thinking that I didn’t have a chance,” said Diaz, who now lives in an apartment in San Luis Obispo. “I wasn’t thinking about a future.”
