About our donation drives
By Chris Cannedy, Community Engagement Manager
Over three decades ago, Friendship Place began as a humble community initiative to provide care and support for the homeless. Today, we have grown exponentially, but our core values remain the same – to rely on the generosity and compassion of our community in order to meet the needs of those we serve.
The journey from a small grassroots effort to an organization that has made a significant impact on the lives of thousands is a testament to the power of collective action. We owe our success not only to our dedicated staff and volunteers but also to the unwavering support we receive from individuals like you.
It is through your donations, contributions, and tireless efforts that we are able to supply essential items and services to our participants. From basic necessities such as food, clothing, and shelter, to vital resources like counseling services and job training programs – every single donation makes a difference in transforming lives.
Friendship Place firmly believes that everyone deserves access to a safe and stable environment where they can thrive. By rallying together as a community, we can offer hope, dignity, and opportunities for growth for those who need it most. As we continue our mission of supporting individuals experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, we humbly ask for your continued support. Together, let us create a future where no one is left behind. Your generous contributions truly make all the difference in building stronger communities and brighter futures for all.
