Did you know that 3 people died on our streets from cold-weather exposure last year? This year, we're going to do something about that. Stay Warm Vancouver is the pet project of a lifetime Clark County resident who has seen first-hand how easy it is for someone to wind up sleeping outside in the winter. Homeless shelters have year long waitlists, and our emergency shelters fill up fast and are only available during "severe weather," which leaves many people sleeping outside in near freezing temperatures.

WE'RE ACCEPTING VOLUNTEER APPLICATIONS NOW! Stay Warm Vancouver does monthly outreaches along the Fourth Plain Corridor to pass out warm drinks (coffee, hot cocoa, etc.) and cold weather survival supplies (sleeping bags, hand warmers, tarps, jackets, etc.). We are also looking to do on-call outreaches during severe weather events, if volunteer availability and safety allow. Monthly outreaches will occur on the fourth Sunday of the month from 2pm - 4pm, from November through February.

We're also accepting specific non-monetary donations. To find the list of donations we accept, our Amazon wishlist, and our volunteer application, please visit https://linktr.ee/StayWarmVancouver .

Thank you for your interest in Stay Warm Vancouver! We're currently accepting volunteer applications and non-monetary donations (see “What Can I Donate?”)

I'm being interviewed by a newspaper and radio station about SWV on Monday! I can't believe it!
