We are deeply saddened, at the sudden passing of our amazing board member and dear friend, Dave Neves. He had a beautifully kind heart and was always ready with a bad joke. Board meetings were always lighter and more fun with him there. Dave has positively touched more people than it’s possible to count as the highly esteemed retired principal at Elk Grove Elementary and community activist.

Dave could sing and play multiple instruments and would quickly compose a song appropriate for the occasion. As a board member, he put his heart and soul into songs and slideshows that showed his heart for the unhoused, especially the children.

As a retired principal, he had good healthy boundaries, but would always err on the side of generosity. He was a wonderfully unique man that is irreplaceable. Words cannot express our deep sadness at the loss of him. Please keep his wife and family in your prayers.

Sending you our “HART-felt” thanks for your support of this year’s Big Day of Giving!
Thanks to incredibly generous donations from more than 66 donors from our EG HART community, we raised $28,289 during the 24-hour Big Day of Giving 2026!
Congratulations go out to Marcia Adreani who won the 2-night stay in a two-bedroom villa at the Marriott Grand Residence in South Lake Tahoe.
Mark your calendars for Thursday, May 6, 2027 when EG HART will participate once again in the regional Big Day of Giving fundraising campaign. Until then, thank you from the bottom of our “HARTs” for your amazing generosity!

We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked, and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty. - Mother Teresa

When you give to Elk Grove HART, you help us provide so much more than food, clothes and a home to our unhoused community. You are providing dignity, respect, and self-worth.

And EVERYONE deserves that!

As we head into the final hours of Big Day of Giving, please give generously at https://www.bigdayofgiving.org/organization/elkgrovehart

Maybe you've been considering giving, but the day has been long and you've been busy. Now that you are going into the evening hours, can you spare a few minutes to give?
As you are eating dinner with your family or tucking your children into bed tonight, will you remember those that don't have those luxuries?

We are still only slightly over half-way to what we need for the upcoming year. You can make a huge difference by giving even a little.

As a reminder, we are once again offering incentives for donors! If you donate $50 or more, you will be entered into a drawing for a two-night stay (Sunday and Monday, May 31 and June 1) in a two-bedroom, three-bath (1150 square feet) luxury residence at the Marriott Grand Residence Club, South Lake Tahoe. This is a $1500 value! Each $50 in your donation will earn a chance in the drawing - for example, if you donate $100 you will earn two chances!

We are more than half-way through the day - and we have reached just 44% of our goal. Reaching our goal will ensure that we are able to continue to support the homeless in our community over the next year.
Your donation helps us provide mentoring programs, overnight warming centers, and transitional housing, along with fighting hunger, supporting families, and improving their health and so much more.
If it was your family that needed these services, wouldn't you be hoping that someone gave?

Please reach deep and consider donating to this worthy cause.

How is your day going? Did you wake up in a warm bed? Did you have breakfast before you headed out the door, or grab coffee on your way to work? Are you kids and grandkids wearing shoes that cover their feet? Did they spend a little time with their favorite toy or electronic before heading to school?

Can you imagine not having any of those things? Waking up in your car, not knowing when and where your next meal will come from. Having to explain to your kids why you don't have a home and why they are "different" than the other kids at school.

That doesn't have to be a reality for anyone - but it is.

You can make a difference in the lives of those families. Can you spare even $15 to help us reach our goal, so we can continue to offer services to the unhoused? No dollar amount is too small.

Give today - before midnight at https://www.bigdayofgiving.org/organization/elkgrovehart

Did you know that when you give to help the homeless in our community, you are also helping the over 1,300 homeless children that attend Elk Grove United School District?

That's a staggering number of students who don't have a place to call home.

Every dollar helps ensure that these children are tucked into a warm bed each night and provided a warm meal every day.

Will you be the one to make the difference?

Give today at https://www.bigdayofgiving.org/organization/elkgrovehart
