Homelessness
HOUSING SEARCH ASSISTANT
One of the hardest parts of ending homelessness is finding apartments for our homeless neighbors once they’ve saved up enough money to move off the streets. We need your help finding available apartments in Bellflower and the surrounding areas. By walking/driving around Bellflower and/or searching online you can help us find homes for our homeless neighbors.
HYGIENE KITS
Our outreach team is always in need of hygiene kits to give to our homeless neighbors! If you're interested in donating some, view our hygiene kit packing list at the learn more button below and drop them off at our office located at 16429 Bellflower Blvd. between 1 to 1:30pm Monday through Thursday or 10 to 10:30am Tuesday through Thursday.
MOVERS
After our Housing Search Assistant volunteers help find our neighbors a brand new home, we need help moving them in! Movers get to welcome our formerly homeless neighbors into their homes as they help move the basics in.
SATURDAY MORNING BREAKFAST & SHOWERS

WELCOME HOME BASKETS
