Mark your calendar for March 19, 2022 for our next Walk to End Homelessness.
A Pandemic Changes Our Process, But Never Our Mission!
HRI continues to hold the frontline against homelessness but we have more work to do and we need your help!
So far in 2021, HRI has provided over 3,400 Kalamazoo households with direct financial assistance to prevent evictions and rehouse households who were literally homelessness. These services include case management, direct client assistance for back rent, rental subsidies, utility payments, move in funds and other housing supports to get and keep people housed. Now more than ever, people experiencing homelessness need our help! Click the Donate Now button to help end homelessness.
