Here’s a little fact worth celebrating: Did you know that 200 households received rental or utility assistance through South County Outreach last year alone?

🏠 That’s an average of about $2,250 in assistance per household, helping prevent evictions, utility shutoffs, and displacement for nearly 500 local residents.
These timely investments can make a lasting difference—helping families stay safely housed and avoid the far greater costs and trauma that can come with homelessness.

💙 None of this is possible without our generous community of supporters.
Every contribution helps provide a little relief when it’s needed most.

Thank you for helping our neighbors stay housed, stable, and moving forward. 🏠✨
