Our organization focuses on providing accessible and comprehensive resources for individuals navigating financial hardships. provides online and community support tools to easily connect the low-income population of the Treasure Valley with the many resources available in the area. OUR STORY
The Low Income Support Inc. non-profit was created to easily connect the low-income population of the Treas
ure Valley with the many resources available in the area. As a case manager for Idaho Medicaid in the Boise area, Don Ruffing, founder of Low Income Support Inc., found it difficult to find and verify the necessary resources needed for his clients. We recognized the need for an up-to-date, easy-to-use catalog of available resources that could be accessed anywhere as an online tool. Out of this need, Low Income Support Inc. was born, as well as its primary tool, Boise LIST. Boise LIST establishes a central repository of information to better connect clients to the range of resources currently available. Low Income Support’s ongoing goal is to easily and quickly connect the client to the resources that they need. WHAT WE DO
We connect the low-income of the Treasure Valley to the resources they need. For the unhoused or low-income population, resources like tax and legal support, transportation repair, clothing needs, and technology support can be difficult to obtain. The Treasure Valley has many organizations and individuals who provide this support; however, linking them with the low-income individual or family in need is difficult. We are bridging that gap to get the resources quickly and efficiently to the people who need them.
