Thank  you to everyone who came out  for our  5K Walk to End Homelessness 2023!

You Can Make A Difference! Help Us Reach our Fundraising Goal!  

Thank you to everyone who came out for our event on March 18th! Mother Nature decided to provide inclement weather for us so we are leaving this fundraising site open. 

In 2022, HRI served 2,400 Kalamazoo households who were facing an eviction, housing crisis or homelessness and provided $8+ million dollars in financial assistance for back rent/utilities, rental assistance, and other emergency housing related costs. These historic pandemic financial resources are sunsetting at a time when the need for emergency housing resources is high. Please consider making a donation to help end homelessness!
